A fluid management and medical device system may include a fluid management system and a medical device having one or more sensors proximate the distal end of the elongate shaft of the medical device. The controller of the fluid management system may be configured to calculate a fluid deficit when the distal end of the elongate shaft is disposed within a patient and configured to automatically pause fluid deficit calculation when the distal end of the elongate shaft is removed from the patient. In some instances the controller is configured to calculate the fluid deficit using rotational speed of the inflow pump in combination with a difference between a change in weight of a fluid supply source supplying fluid to the fluid management system and a change in weight of a collection container collecting fluid from the fluid management system.

An infusion safety device comprises a tag reader which is adapted to read a medication tag provided at an infusion medication reservoir, in particular during the whole infusion and a processing unit which is connected with said tag reader and is provided to be connected with an infusion pump in which an infusion protocol is stored and is adapted to recognize a change of the medication reservoir, to read out the infusion protocol from the infusion pump, to cause said tag reader to carry out a reading operation at the latest in case it recognizes a change of the medication reservoir and to give an alarm in case there is no match between the medication read by said tag reader and the medication required by the infusion protocol.

A transfusion speed regulator, a transfusion monitoring system and an operation method of the transfusion monitoring system are disclosed. The transfusion speed regulator includes a housing, a lead rail, an actuator and a regulating roller. The housing includes a bottom plate; the lead rail is on the housing and is not parallel to the bottom plate; the regulating roller is configured to be moved along the lead rail to regulate a transfusion speed; and the actuator is configured to drive the regulating roller to move.

An intravenous drip monitoring method is provided. (A) A monitoring initializing signal is received. (B) A loaded weight is measured to be assigned to be an initial weight and a current weight when the loaded weight is smaller than an empty weight in (C). (D) An alert weight is calculated such that the predetermined minimum alert weight is assigned to be the alert weight. (E) The loaded weight is measured and assigned to be the current weight. (F) When the current weight is not smaller than the alert weight, (E) is performed. (G) When the current weight is between the alert weight and the empty weight, an alert module generates an alert signal and (E) is performed. (H) When the current weight is smaller than the empty weight, a reset to zero and a zero offset calibration is performed on the weighting module and (C) is performed.

A monitoring device provided for monitoring the delivery of fluids through a drip chamber. The device includes an electromagnetic radiation source and a radiation detector. A weight detector is positioned to determine the weight of a fluid reservoir over time, and the detector is positioned with respect to the drip chamber to detect drops falling through the drip chamber. A processor is coupled to the radiation detector and the weight detector to determine flow rate, and is further coupled to a flow restrictor to selectively increase or decrease flow based on the determined flow rate.

Fluid transfer systems are disclosed that can be configured to transfer precise amounts of fluid from a source container to a target container. The fluid transfer system can have multiple fluid transfer stations for transferring fluids into multiple target containers or for combining different types of fluids into a single target container to form a mixture. The fluid transfer system can include a pump and a destination sensor, such as a weight sensor. The fluid transfer system can be configured to flush remaining fluid out of a connector to reduce waste, using air or a flushing fluid.

An intravenous delivery system may operate by gravity feed, and may have a liquid source containing a liquid, a drip unit that receives the liquid from the liquid source, and tubing that receives the liquid from the drip unit for delivery to a patient. A flow rate sensor may be used to measure a flow rate of liquid through the intravenous delivery system, and may generate a flow rate signal indicative of the flow rate. A controller may receive the signal, and may compare the flow rate with a desired flow rate. If the flow rate is more or less than the desired flow rate, the controller may transmit a control signal to a flow rate regulator. The flow rate regulator may receive the control signal and, in response, modify the flow rate to bring the flow rate closer to the desired flow rate.
