An automatic surgical suction pump controller device.

Abstract

An automated surgical suction pump controller device is a subject system. that relies on the algorithm that monitors the maximum fluid level and the decision depending on the monitored values of sensor that it points to. this system improves the technology of the existing surgical controller device which completely curb down the breakdown of the surgical suction control board system. In gathering the information, consultations and document reviews concerning the existing surgical control systems and their corresponding subsystems responsible for detecting and notifying the maximum fluid level required for the replacement of new reservoir tank for used during an operation. It was from the analysis of the gathered information that the development of the surgical suction pump control device kicked-off. I designed the system in Protius ISIS software and wrote a code in AVR Studio5 which provided me with the basic picture on how the system was to work and be integrated from its constituent subparts. The components of the system were tested prior to system testing using a braid board after which they were soldered on a copper board. The functionality of the system was under the control of the algorithm/code that was written on the microcontroller. The system was finally subjected to system testing to validate and verify its working by me and some of my other classmates before presenting to Busitema University.
