Description
Summary:There is a tremendous demand on the critical care resources due to the extensivespread of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic and the large number of patients requiring critical care.The efficacy of a device directly influences how long a patient lives since patients are often receivingcritical care. Smart infusion pump is a medical device that can drip fluids into the patient's body. Thisdevice is considered as one of the most safety-critical medical devices due to the way it functions andthe risks it presents. The main objective of this work is to develop an affordable infusion pump usingembedded technology. The main tactic is to develop equipment that can identify air bubbles in infusionpump tubing since even a little one might obstruct blood flow and result in mortality. This method mayprovide consumers an accurate result, making it the greatest method for identifying bubbles and savinglives.
