Several essential fluidic functions are vital for our survival. These include blood circulation in the body, breathing air through the lungs, and food ingestion and excretion.
However, when abnormalities develop due to illness or other factors, such functions may get compromised, and the patient may need temporary or permanent augmentation to maintain a requisite level of fluidic body functions. This is achieved through mechanical circulatory assistance or a support device.
This invention aims to enable a compact and mobile method for body fluid augmentation in tandem with a trigger with a low response time and with the least possibility of contamination to improve the patient’s mobility and independence.
