YjS - One problem that may occur during dialysis is that air gets into the blood tubing. To prevent this from happening, blood tubings have two air traps built into them. One trap is before the dialyzer and the other is after it. These traps catch any air that may get into the system. If air does get past these traps an internal machine air sensor shuts down the blood pump and an alarm will sound. All blood flow is stopped until the air is removed.
