The purpose of this project is to design and implementation of a monitoring device for blood leakage detection during hemodialysis treatment. The design includes a Photointerrupter, ESP8266 module, and alert components. The validation results show that it only needs a very small amount of blood and takes to detect a blood leakage. As long as the patient wear this system it gives monitoring signal to the health care unit. The absorbent material is placed at the Photointerrupter. Once the blood leakage occurs the absorbent material which is placed at the Photointerrupter absorbs the blood and the alarm will triggers. A warning light will also be activated, and a detecting signal is transmitted to the healthcare station. Immediately the health worker take action to prevent this risk. The proposed system continuously gives out an alert for continuously monitor upto hours/days. This system is more convenient to the patient and also healthcare workers. The Proposed system is developed using ARM Cortex Controller, Photo Interrupter (IR Sensor), Buzzer, LM35, LCD, RTOS and etc.
