he technological advancement in the medical system is necessary due to the increase in the population.
Current health care system requires manual care takers and their heavy duties which is very time consuming job.
Advanced health monitoring systems are required with less human intervention which will be available at low cost in
rural as well as urban areas. In almost all hospital a nurse is required for monitoring the fluid level and health
condition. But the care taker/nurse may forget to change the fluid and inform the doctor about the health condition on
time. This will be the major problem in the health condition of the patient. To overcome this problem a low cost
automated fluid control device is implemented, which uses flow sensor, PIC microcontroller and other sensors to monitor
the health condition of the patient, also control the flow control of the fluid using the microcontroller and flow sensor.
This reduces the more intervention of the human and also requires low investment.
