Novel Low-Cost Device for Detecting Urine Bag Filling Using the Remote Control
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The present study aims to facilitate the work of nurses and medical staff in patient care. Nurses have always faced the challenge of being aware of the filling status of urine bags (urinary catheters). Failure to empty the urine bag in a timely manner for patients with disabilities, paralysis, or impaired consciousness can lead to urinary difficulties such as retention and urine reflux. Repeated occurrences of this issue may result in more serious complications like renal problems and urinary tract infections, jeopardizing patient health and prolonging hospital stays significantly. Given the advancement of technology and the widespread use of wireless communication, this project utilizes code-learn remote control technology. By attaching a special clamp to the urine bag, an alarm is triggered in the nurses’ station or a designated area when the bag is full, enabling prompt intervention and ensuring better patient management, comfort, and safety around the clock, therefore improving overall healthcare quality.
