FLUID CONTROL AND ALERT DEVICE USING SMART PHONE

—The design and implementation of an automated liquid observation and controlling method utilizing an affordable liquid flow sensor and the microcontroller are presented here which has the ability to assist the health care provider to control the saline circulation rate using Matrix keypad or Android phone. The Arduino Mega (2560) platform has been used as controlling unit for providing necessary control along with a 3×4 matrix keypad and Bluetooth module to control the drop per minute manually and by using an android phone. The designed flow sensor will be hooked up to the drip chamber of the saline container to determine the saline flow rate as well as an accurate number of a drop of the saline. The obtained outputs from the sensor are continuously checked with the given command and if any mismatch is found, the microcontroller moves the servo motor to modify the circulation rate to balance with assigned command. The device has been tested after completion of necessary hardware development. The outcome is satisfactory which indicates a possible application in taking care of patient more appropriately.

The intravenous therapy is used to correct electrolyte imbalances and to deliver medicines. In this scenario, hospitals like high speciality hospital have infusion pump in dripping system. In any case if there is any failure in infusion pump, we cannot monitor the patient correctly. With the help of the device developed in this project the checking of the level of fluid given to the patient and the flow can control automatically. When the fluid reaches a predefined threshold level, device will give an alarm to the nurse and to the bystander. The main aim of the project is to relieve human effort by automatically controlling the dripping system of the patient in a hospital. In this device a flow meter is used to find out the fluid level in the tube and a NODEMCU module is used to processes the information to control the flow and to communicate the information to activate the indicator at the premises of duty nurse and bystander. An external actuator, which is enabled by the signal from the Raspberry-Pi module is used to block the flow of fluid to the patient body. By using this device, we can reduce the number of patients' death by entering bubbles with blood through vein and also reduces the stress of nurse.

In all over the world the technology is growing at a very high speed. Human lives become much more dependent on electronic devices. In hospitals, fluid or saline fed to patients to treat dehydration and thus improve their health. Almost in all of the hospitals, a nurse or caretaker is responsible for monitoring the saline continuously without any interruptions. Due to the negligence and inattentiveness towards saline completion by doctors, nurses or caretaker of the patients and lack of nurses with sufficient skills in hospitals and their excessive workload a huge number of patients are being harmed in the hospitals. Thus, innovative health and fluid level of patient monitoring systems are being developed with less human intervention, which will be available at low cost in rural and urban areas. The proposed system comprises of sensors which will act as a level indicator for monitoring the critical level of fluid in the fluid bottle and control infusion drop rate from using motor mechanism to increasing and decreasing the fluid drop rate. This proposed system can be utilized efficiently in homes as well as hospitals.

The hospital staff and health workers are under tremendous pressure and fatigued is in pandemic situations. The present invention aims to obviate the scenario where the nurse has to recursively check if the fluid level is low or not. This invention is an integrated alert system for the Saline or Electrolyte bottle levels which the patients are subjected to. It uses a non-contact capacitive switch sensor to detect if the fluid falls below a predetermined level. The sensor interacts with a Wi-Fi intergraded microprocessor module sends a push notification in phone application. The system also has a buzzer which will be placed beside the patient's bed to alert someone if present in close proximity. This reduces nonproductive works and prevents medical accidents which occur if the saline or electrolyte bottle is not replaced or refilled on time.

In hospitals, Saline is fed to patients to treat dehydration and thus improve their health. In current health care measures, whenever a saline is fed to any patient, the patient needs to be continuously monitored by a nurse or any caretaker. Almost in all of the hospital, a nurse or caretaker is responsible for monitoring the saline level continuously without any interruptions. Due to the negligence and inattentiveness towards saline completion by doctors, nurses or caretaker of the patients and lack of nurses with sufficient skills in hospitals and their excessive workload, a huge number of patients are being harmed in the hospitals. Hence to prevent the patient from getting harmed and protect their lives during saline feeding period, the saline level monitoring and control system have been developed. The proposed system comprises of sensors which will act as a level sensor for monitoring the critical level of the saline in the saline bottle and control infusion drop rate from using motor mechanism to increasing and decreasing the saline drop rate. The system will show saline droplet status, saline drop rate and remaining time through app to be develop for convenient to hospital staff member. This proposed system can be utilized efficiently in homes as well as hospitals.

The great demand of today world is to get everything within a very short time. This current task's primary goal is to calm human exertion via consequently controlling the trickling arrangement of the patient and keep them awared in a clinic. A critical situation occurs as the air enters into the saline bottle which leads to loss of large amount of blood .This undertaking comprises of a RF transmitter and beneficiary which is fundamentally utilized for the remote correspondence reason. In this an alarm message will be sent to the worry attendant station when the trickle framework arrives at a specific level by utilizing GSM module. The microcontroller is utilized to forms the data for every one of the directions given to every part. An IR sensor is utilized to recognize the sudden change in the level of glucose. When level of glucose reaches the point it provides an LCD display and also displays the patient's room number to the nursing station. If nurses are not present in their respective stations the glucose may reach the critical point and buzzer is set to alert the nurse or the attender. The nurse and attender of the patient is kept awarded about the level of the glucose.

In medical field, electronics industry gaining to develop medical equipment at very high advanced level techniques, they use electronics system every time for patient caring. Patient monitoring system can be defined as the system used for monitoring physiological signals that includes the parameters like electro-cardio graph (ECG), respiratory signals, invasive and noninvasive blood pressure, body temperature, gases related parameters, etc. So, we also try to developer medical field and provide another patient caring facility to medical service for patient monitoring. As per requirement of medical field we try to complete the requirement. As per requirement of medical field we design this “patient monitoring & alerting system by using GSM”.

Nowadays, the entire life of each and every person becomes more hectic due to the heavy load of work. Due to increase of work load, people neglect their health and it may cause more harmful to their health in future. So many health care systems are developed to continuously monitor their blood pressure, haemoglobin, sleep rate, diabetes etc. Sometimes people feel dehydration that's why they need to fed saline to improve their health. So, we develop saline monitoring system which continuously monitors level of saline in absence of any hospital staff. The main purpose of this system is to automatically track the saline level of patient using Arduino nano and whole system is remotely controlled by an Android OS smart phone. In hospitals, it is not possible that nurse will monitor each and every patient. It may harm to nerves of patients, so to overcome this situation we develop proposed system. Main aim of system is that to monitor the saline level and notify the current level of the saline to the nurse. And when the saline gets finished system automatically stops the flow of saline with the help of spring.
