1. A method comprising:
accessing, by one or more processors, an image including a representation of a fluid receiver having fluid from a patient, the fluid including a blood component;
identifying, by the one or more processors, that the fluid receiver in the image is of a specific type;
detecting, by the one or more processors, a region in the image that is within the fluid receiver and includes the fluid;
determining, by the one or more processors, an amount of the blood component in the fluid receiver and a corresponding error, based on the region and the specific type of fluid receiver; and
providing, by the one or more processors, information based on the determined amount of the blood component and the corresponding error, to a user.
