Abstract

Intravenous drug administration delivers medication directly into the bloodstream, providing rapid and controlled effects, making it highly beneficial for emergencies or when immediate drug action is required. However, several risks are associated with intravenous drug administration, including infiltration and extravasation, which can lead to serious complications due to the rapid absorption of medication to the surrounding tissues. To prevent complications, here we proposed a non-contact sensor module to rapidly detect such events. The system does not interfere with the human skin, nor contaminating the flowing medication since only biocompatible materials are exposed to the liquid. The proposed sensor module was assembled as a flow channel with flow rate and pressure sensing functions. The flow rate sensing was realized using a micromachined thermal flow sensor fabricated on a thin polyimide film, while the pressure sensing was realized using a diaphragm structure and a MEMS pressure sensor. Basic characteristics of each function was evaluated and a proof of concept experiment demonstrated a rapid detection of infiltration/extravasation within a few s. Measurement of leaked fluid volume during the event was also demonstrated.

期刊介绍： Biomedical Microdevices: BioMEMS and Biomedical Nanotechnology is an interdisciplinary periodical devoted to all aspects of research in the medical diagnostic and therapeutic applications of Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (BioMEMS) and nanotechnology for medicine and biology. General subjects of interest include the design, characterization, testing, modeling and clinical validation of microfabricated systems, and their integration on-chip and in larger functional units. The specific interests of the Journal include systems for neural stimulation and recording, bioseparation technologies such as nanofilters and electrophoretic equipment, miniaturized analytic and DNA identification systems, biosensors, and micro/nanotechnologies for cell and tissue research, tissue engineering, cell transplantation, and the controlled release of drugs and biological molecules. Contributions reporting on fundamental and applied investigations of the material science, biochemistry, and physics of biomedical microdevices and nanotechnology are encouraged. A non-exhaustive list of fields of interest includes: nanoparticle synthesis, characterization, and validation of therapeutic or imaging efficacy in animal models; biocompatibility; biochemical modification of microfabricated devices, with reference to non-specific protein adsorption, and the active immobilization and patterning of proteins on micro/nanofabricated surfaces; the dynamics of fluids in micro-and-nano-fabricated channels; the electromechanical and structural response of micro/nanofabricated systems; the interactions of microdevices with cells and tissues, including biocompatibility and biodegradation studies; variations in the characteristics of the systems as a function of the micro/nanofabrication parameters.
