Design of a Remote Monitoring System Based on Optical Sensors to Prevent Medical Accidents during Fluid Treatment

It is essential to measure and monitor the intravenous (IV) infusion rate of inpatients. Medical staff monitor the IV infusion rate continually to ensure that a constant value is maintained. Developing an IV infusion monitoring system can help alleviate the workload of medical staff. Therefore, this...
