SECURE FLOW - “A Life Saving Intravenous Drip System”

Abstract

Intravenous (IV) therapy is a common medical procedure that involves the delivery of fluids, medications, or nutrients directly into a vein. Intravenous drips are often used in hospitals and clinics to treat a variety of conditions, including dehydration, sepsis, and chemotherapy. Traditionally, Intravenous drips are controlled manually by healthcare professionals or nurses. In recent years, there has been growing interest in the development of automated Intravenous drip systems. These systems can help to improve the accuracy, efficiency, and safety of Intravenous therapy. The system “Secure flow” is proposed to use solenoid valve to control the flow of fluid, and the load cell is used to measure the weight of the Intravenous bag. If the weight of the Intravenous bag decreases below a certain threshold, the solenoid valve is activated to stop the flow of fluid and also sends an alert notification to the registered number. It also has a potentiometer which can be used to adjust the preset value of the liquid in the solenoid to flow through the patient’s body. Overall, this system has the potential to improve the safety, efficiency, and accuracy of Intravenous therapy. This system can be a valuable tool for hospitals and clinics that are looking to improve the quality of care that they provide to their patients.
