SmartClinity's sensing and connectivity architecture supports two distinct clinical product lines — each addressing a critical gap in fluid management within the hospital environment.
Post-operative and abdominal drainage management currently depends on periodic manual assessment. SmartClinity's drainage monitoring system transforms this workflow — providing continuous, objective data on both the quantity and quality of drained fluid.
Real-time fluid quality monitoring
Fluid load index — drainage quality evolution over time
As drainage progresses, the fluid quality index descends from an initially high load — reflecting the clearance of blood or exudate — and gradually stabilises, indicating a shift toward a cleaner fluid state.
Closed-loop flow control system
The drug administration product line applies the same embedded sensing platform to controlled delivery of IV fluids and medications. A pinch-valve actuator modulates flow based on continuous ultrasonic measurement — governed by a PID control loop running onboard the ESP32-C3.
