As a layperson, I would love to know more about this technology, it's really not clear from the article.
Having had to make hard decisions for end-of-life care for a loved one, and only afterwards reading about contradictory opinions in palliative care, it seems like this technology might help in a non-disruptive way to make better decisions in end-of-life care related to the use of IV fluids.
By "better", I just mean decisions that give everyone the best chance of having high quality interactions and feeling at peace with decisions. Just the decision to give someone IV fluids in palliative care can be hard.
