Abstract | ||||
Drug infusion systems are used to inject intra-venous (IV) anti-cancer chemotherapy drugs inside the patients. These systems are mostly operator-based with very small options to achieve the treatment goals. Furthermore, the infusion systems with advanced options like wireless PC-based is very expensive and is rarely used in Egyptian hospitals and/or medical centers. Hence, this project aims at developing a new advanced medical drug infusion system for cancer chemotherapy, with inexpensive cost. In this project, the NI-MyRIO as FPGA-based controller is basically used for controlling the drug infusion rates and the performance of the developed system. Moreover, it is possible to connect the developed system with a PC via a USB cable or using wireless communication technology, i.e. Wi-Fi, in order to adjust and monitor the drug infusion rate based on LabVIEW graphical interface during the session of chemotherapy. | ||||
