A drip is known as a cannula, intravenous fluids or IV that is used to restore and maintain fluid and salt levels in patients who are unable to take fluids and nutrients by mouth.The nurses have to regularly check the drip to verify if there is enough fluid in the drip and it has to be changed as soon as the fluid level reaches the critical level, otherwise the blood may discharge into the drip and make serious consequences.
Further, the drips can block, leak or become infected. So, it is inevitable to constantly monitor the drip status of patients and it becomes complicated if the number of patients those who are treated is high.Hence, a device that can monitor the status of flow and level of fluid in the drip is needed for hospitals to ensure better treatment. The device must enable the user to view the progress of drip of patients and it should alert the nurse based on priority.
