Abstract：This paper introduced the design process of an alarming device for empty bag of disposable
intravenous infusion (IV) sets. The device was composed of an infrared detection module, a SCM
Control module, a result comparing module, and an acoustic and optical alarming module. Its function
was to make an alarm when the intravenous infusion bottle was empty in the emergency or outpatient
room. The device could solve the problem that the empty bag of the IV sets were easily ignored in certain
clinical departments. In clinical application, the device could respond to the empty infusion bag quickly
and sensitively. The designed device had advantages of rapid response, low cost, strong expandability,
and compact configuration, thus it had good application and promotion value.
