Solar Powered
Saline Infusion Alarm System

A very low-cost solar-powered alarm setup for a saline-infusion system, to warn health-care providers and nurses in medical facilities that the saline level, in the saline-bottle being administered to a patient, has reached a preset minimum. This may prevent unpleasant accidents involving air bubbles being sucked into arteries of the patient, when the saline in a bottle is exhausted, and the health-care provider is inattentive.
