Design of a Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis (CAPD) Fluid Monitoring System Prototype for IoT-Based Kidney Failure Patients

Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis (CAPD) is one of the dialysis methods used for patients with kidney failure. The CAPD process occurs 3 to 4 times daily within 24 hours. CAPD patients need to record manually in a logbook. The logbook contains the duration of time required by the patient and is equipped with data in the form of the weight of the fluid expelled by the patient. Periodic replacement of CAPD can result in swelling of the patient's body. This study aims to design a CAPD fluid replacement monitoring system connected to the internet. So that this prototype can provide information in real-time, which is visualized with excel data in CSV format to health workers. Thus, health workers can monitor the time and weight of the fluid released directly without consulting directly. From the results of this test, this prototype can transmit changes in fluid data per minute, and the measurement accuracy of the load cell sensor is 98%.
