IOT Based IV Bag Monitoring and Alert System
Abstract - The current design of the IV bag monitoring system aims to improve patient safety throughout medical facilities by providing automated fluid supervision. An HX711 load cell amplifier together with a load sensor enables the system to perform accurate weight measurement of IV bags before calculating their corresponding volume values. The 16x2 I2C LCD shows current IV volume using a graphical bar gauge and displays the volume values in milliliters. Through the combination of Wi-Fi connectivity with RemoteXY, you can perform wireless and instant monitoring of the fluid levels using linear visual indicators together with their textual descriptions. The system features a buzzer that sounds an alert to healthcare providers whenever the IV volume reaches designated low thresholds, thus helping to avoid unrecognizable fluid depletion. The equipment operates using a 500 ml IV bag measurement capacity with distinct volume ranges that trigger warning indicators during the volume depletion process. A volume reading averaging system produces smoother displays, and the buzzer activates according to current volume values. Through an affordable monitoring system, healthcare providers can perform efficient real-time IV fluid checks in both hospital and home settings, which cuts down on manual assessments while enhancing patient care trustworthiness. Key Words: Microcontroller, Weight Sensor, Led Alert, Buzzer Alert, Fluid Level Detection.
