Inexpensive Drug Sensor with Gold Nano Domes Identifies Fluid Contents in IV Lines

Today, computerized smart systems can deliver drugs intravenously in exact volumes to hospital patients. However, these systems cannot recognize which medications are in the tubing nor can they determine the concentration of the drug in the tubing. This lack of precise information can lead to medication errors with serious consequences.
