In the current era of rapid technological advancement, healthcare systems are increasingly adopting smart technologies to improve patient safety. Intravenous (IV) glucose administration is critical in ICU and emergency care, yet manual monitoring often leads to errors like over-infusion or delayed responses to empty bottles. This paper proposes GlucoGuardian, an IoT-based system that automates the monitoring and control of IV glucose. Utilizing an ESP32 microcontroller with flow and level sensors, the system ensures precise delivery via a solenoid valve. Real-time data and alerts are transmitted to a cloud platform for remote supervision. By reducing human error and improving administration accuracy, this solution demonstrates the transformative potential of IoT in modern healthcare.
