Intelligent Household Peritoneal Dialysis System

According to the "Renal Disease Annual Report" by the Taiwan Society of Nephrology, it is estimated that about 12% of Taiwanese suffer from kidney disease, it has become an important medical issue in the context of Taiwan's aging population. Peritoneal dialysis is a self-care home treatment for treating kidney disease, peritoneal dialysis can be performed manually by a trained caregiver or patient. However, with an improper operation, that could cause thrombosis or peritonitis in patients. Therefore, we propose an intelligent household peritoneal dialysis system to automatically execute the process of peritoneal dialysis. The voice-controlled system is easy in use for patients, who can be decreasing reliance on caregivers. Especially, the automatic operation can avoid possible improper controls by user in the process of peritoneal dialysis.
