네트워크를 이용한 자동 IV 주사 유량 제어 및 모니터링

Ⅳ injection is the giving of substances directly into a vein and is widely used in hospitals. This passive method does not control the flow rate consistently. As a result, it causes an unnecessary nurse's overwork and decrement of Ⅳ injection's effect. To solve these problems, the flow control infusion pump has been developed. But because of relatively heavy weight and high price, it has not been used widely, yet. In this study, automatic Ⅳ injection system with small pressing mechanism and efficient control system is designed and fabricated. The system is smaller in size and uses lower power than the existing commercial product. Presented system is also equipped with networking capability, which enables monitoring the status of several automatic IV injection system.
