Currently, a local nurse takes care of 17 patients in stark contrast to 5 in the US and 10 in Europe. As the number of patients per nurse increases, the quality of nurses' work environment decreases, and that of healthcare service becomes inferior. Fundamentally, the solution is to increase the number of nurses, which however is not easy in practice. Unless we can increase the number of nurses, it is necessary to help nurses work efficiently and conveniently. 'IV Light' is mounted in the drip chamber of the IV injection unit, intended to intuitively show the fluid information to patients, nurses and doctors. “IV Light measures the frequency of fluid drops in the drip chamber to show the information about the status and speed of fluid injection through a light. Also, the light coming from 'IV Light' adds a color to the colorless fluid using the property of light penetrating water not air, making it easier to see how much fluid is left.
