1. A system for recording continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (“CAPD”) data, the system comprising:
a dialysis machine; and
a data transfer unit including:
an input device for receiving dialysis data from a patient, the dialysis data including a fill volume amount and a drain volume amount for at least one CAPD cycle;
a transceiver for communicative coupling to the dialysis machine; and
a processor communicatively coupled to the input device and the transceiver, wherein the processor in conjunction with the input device and the transceiver are configured to:
aggregate the received dialysis data over a defined time period, and
after the transceiver is communicatively coupled to the dialysis machine, transmit the aggregated dialysis data to the dialysis machine to enable the aggregated dialysis data to be combined with additional dialysis data generated by the dialysis machine for determining total dialysis data for the defined time period,
wherein the processor is configured to automatically transmit the aggregated dialysis data after detecting the communicative coupling to the dialysis machine.
