Blood alarm

Canon Linked from 6 articles

Blood alarms were a type of alarm system that could send a comm notification to individuals when a blood-sensitive sensor, a sensor that detected the spillage of blood, was triggered. In 32 BBY, Captain Quarsh Panaka installed a blood alarm and its sensor in Queen Padmé Amidala's apartments within the Theed Royal Palace on the Mid Rim planet Naboo.

That year, the blood-sensitive sensor was triggered when Amidala's handmaiden Saché started her period, and it sent a blood alarm notification to the captain, leading him and his wife, Mariek Panaka, to investigate. Upon entering the rooms and discovering what had happened, Saché was deeply embarrassed. Afterward, Mariek helped the handmaiden clean up and admonished Quarsh for placing a blood alarm in an apartment inhabited by teenage girls.
