Wireless urine volume monitor and system thereof

Abstract

The invention discloses a wireless urine volume monitor and a system thereof. The wireless urine volume monitor is connected to a monitoring station and an intelligent terminal through a wireless signal transmission unit and sends urine information obtained by real-time monitoring by the wireless urine volume monitor to the monitoring station and the intelligent terminal. The work station receivesthe urine information sent by the wireless urine volume monitor and sends alarm and reminder information to the intelligent terminal. The intelligent terminal receives the alarm information and reminder information sent by the work station and performs an alarm and a reminder. The wireless urine volume monitor and the system can accurately measure the volume of urine without being in contact withthe urine, realizes real-time measurement, is safe and durable, and does not increase the risk of urethral obstruction. For operating room environment, the wireless urine volume monitor and the system help doctors to concentrate on conventional monitors so as to improve the quality and efficiency of medical treatment. For ICU and ward environment, centralized management of the urine volume monitors distributed to hospital beds can be achieved so as to help to improve the medical work efficiency and reduce the workload of medical staff.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of medical equipment, in particular to a wireless urine volume monitor and a system thereof. Background technique [0002] In the operating room and ward, it is necessary to count the urine volume information of catheterized patients, which is usually measured manually, which increases the workload of medical staff and cannot be monitored in real time. Especially during the operation, it is necessary to count the urine volume frequently to judge the fluid intake and output, kidney function, and guide fluid or blood transfusion therapy. However, multi-layer sterile drape covers the patient and covers a large space under the operating bed, and the surgeon is located around the patient; when counting urine volume, medical staff often need to avoid the area where the surgeon is standing, squat down, and properly lift the sterile drape , Reading, very inconvenient, and may affect the surgical operation, contamination of t...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0005] (1) Disadvantages of the weighing method: ① No matter whether the hook or the tray is used, there is a urinary tube connecting the human body and the urine bag, and the process of urine flowing from the human body into the urine bag is dynamic, which will affect the accuracy of weighing

②Contact hydrometer has the risk of cross-infection due to contact with urine

④ Some weighing schemes do not measure the specific gravity of urine, but directly use the density of water to calculate the volume, especially for patients with surgery, critical illness and renal dysfunction, there are large errors

[0006] (2) Disadvantages of the flow method: ①The outflow of human urine has the characteristics of irregular timing and indeterminate quantity. There are situations of no flow and rapid outflow, and the size of the droplets is not fixed, or even flows down in bunches, and the measurement error is large.

②Although some schemes improve the structure of the droplet formation site, limit the inner diameter of the urinary catheter and the flow rate of urine, try to keep the droplet size constant and flow down intermittently; but because of the phenomenon of formed components and crystal deposition in urine, this increased risk of catheter blockage

[0007] (3) Common disadvantages: ①The operating room environment is suitable for integrating the urine volume monitoring module into the existing monitor and connecting it to the anesthesia automatic recording system, without adding additional monitoring equipment and workload, which is conducive to the doctor's concentration on Existing monitors to improve medical quality and efficiency

The current existing solutions generally use independent monitoring and display units, which cannot meet the above two requirements
