Abstract
Disclosed is an automated weight based fluid output monitoring system that can include a hanger having a securement ball defining a spherical surface and configured to engage a socket. The securement ball can include a sensor array configured to detect a change in pressure between the securement ball and the socket as well as a direction of force relative to a transverse axis of the socket. The hanger can further include a hook configured to be coupled to a fluid collection bag of a fluid drainage system. The hanger can further include a console having one or more processors, non-transitory storage medium, an energy source and a one or more logic modules configured to determine a change in fluid volume of the collection bag over time and an off-axis loading of the fluid collecting bag relative to the transverse axis.
