Abstract:
Objective: To enhance the safety of intravenous infusion and reduce the working strength of the nursing staff, a novel auto-switched intravenous infusion system was developed. Methods: The system was controlled by a low power consumption microchip. A signal was detected when the infusion was finished in one channel and then a cam mechanism was used to switch the infusion channel automatically under the supervision of the microchip. Results:A novel auto-switched intravenous infusion system was proposed and analyzed. The proposed concept is innovative, feasible and of functionality. Conclusion: The proposed auto-switched intravenous infusion system is cost effective and practical. It has potential applications and can benefit for improving current intravenous infusion situation.
