Abstract

In this research, a novel Automated Fluid Management System (AFMS) was designed, analysed and fabricated for endoscopy aided gynaecological surgeries in order to prevent complications arise due to fluid overload. The proposed system consists of a peristaltic pump, suction mechanism and fluid measurement system integrated with a graphical user interface which can also control and monitor through a wireless network system. The device serves functionalities such as regulating saline flow rate, limiting saline suction rate, setting saline absorption limits for different patients and indicating real-time fluid deficit. This paper discusses designing of a non-contact pump for gynaecological surgeries, development of the control system for AFMS and the comparison of experimental results of the fabricated non-contact pump with theoretical pump characteristics.
