Desarrollo de un sistema para el control y monitoreo de un autoclave utilizando el software de ingeniería LabVIEW para la empresa Multiservicios COESTRA.

Abstract

The main objective of this work was to develop an application for the control and monitoring of an autoclave called Autoclave control and monitoring system. Interviews were carried out with the manager of the multiservice company COESTRA, which allowed the collection of information. For the development of the autoclave control and monitoring system, the LabView engineering software was used to create the screens, the user and administrator modules, for the control and monitoring of the autoclave; to assemble the circuit of the autoclave, electronic devices were used, in addition to the communication of the autoclave circuit with the system developed in the computer, a USB type A B cable was used. For a better development of the system the agile SCRUM methodology was used. The developed system has a main page to select the type of user, who will have to log in to enter both the Administrator module and the User module. The administrator module has full control over the system to perform the sterilization of surgical equipment, textiles and mixed materials. The user module is in charge of monitoring the process of sterilization. The information of the users and of the different types of sterilization is stored in a database. To obtain results about the usability of the system, a prior training was carried out to the manager and employees of the company, from which the results show a 90.1% acceptance and a level of disagreement of 9.9%, hence, it is concluded that the system meets the objectives raised in this work and is fully usable.
