Automatically and precisely recording urine output in catheterized patients.
This is the inside of The Streamline, components include a flow meter for volume calculation, a solenoid valve, and fluid reservoir.
Project Description:
In the United States millions of people each year are catheterized during their hospital stays. For catheterized patients in critical condition, urine output volume is a very important metric. Healthcare providers make important treatment decisions based on urine volume such as if a patient with congestive heart failure has the correct dosage of diuretic or if a post-op patient has any fluid pooling in their body.
