Blood collection monitor is used for accurate collection of blood. This compact device counts the amount of blood and gently rocks the blood to ensure that it is mixed evenly with the anticoagulant, which keeps blood clots from forming when blood is drawn from a donor. Blood collection process happens in different environments, the main challenge to the phlebotomist (one who draws blood for analysis or transfusion) is to make each blood collection process more comfortable and safer without compromising quality. Blood collection monitor comes into role here; it is specially designed to for standardized high quality blood collection with reduced work load of phlebotomist. A blood collection monitor makes ensuring that the right amount of blood is collected while maintaining continual movement to improve component output. So, the correct volume of blood collection and mixing of the blood with anticoagulant and periodically during collection of blood is done by blood collection monitor. In this project a more cost effective and easily portable model of the blood collection monitor will be designed.
