A system for uroflowmetry is disclosed. The system can include an audio device configured to obtain audio data of urination. The system can include a machine learning module with at least one processor and associated memory, wherein the system is configured to: process the audio data of urination via a machine learning model that is trained based on simulated urine flow data and associated audio data received from a urine flow simulator, and real urine flow data and associated audio data received from a urine flow measuring device, and output the processed audio data of urination to be used in uroflowmetry.

In some examples, a method including determining a chronaxie of evoked threshold motor responses from electrical stimulation delivered to a sacral nerve of a patient; and delivering, based on the determined chronaxie, electrical stimulation therapy, configured to treat a patient condition, to the sacral nerve having a pulse width at or near the identified chronaxie, wherein the delivered electrical stimulation is configured to inhibit contraction of at least one a bladder or bowel of the patient.

An artificial bladder is provided, including: a main body which includes an inlet port, an outlet port, an inner wall that forms a first reservoir portion configured to store urine between the inlet port and the outlet port and that is expandable and contractible. An outer wall forms a second reservoir portion configured to surround at least a partial region of the inner wall. A sensor is attached to the inner wall, has a surface having a wrinkled structure, and is provided so that, when the volume of the first reservoir portion increases, the wrinkled structure stretches out and resistance of the sensor changes. A control unit is provided to discharge the urine in the first reservoir portion through the outlet port according to a result detected by the sensor.

Featured are urodynamic catheters, intravaginal devices, and intrarectal devices, systems and kits thereof, and methods of using the devices, systems, and kits to observe pelvic floor movements in order to monitor bladder function in order to diagnose, treat, or prevent urinary incontinence disorders, such as urge incontinence and stress incontinence.

A penile ring, a penile ring adapted for closing the urethra to prevent stress incontinence, having a ring-shaped body configured for surrounding a penis, the ring-shaped body comprising an upper part (10) including a backstop (20) extending in an arc around the upper part, and a lower part (30) including one or more expandable compression pads (40). The penile ring comprises a sensor (110) to detect urine flow in the urethra and to provide a signal that triggers the compression pads to expand inwards to occlude the urethra and thereby preventing flow of urine.

An incontinence detection system monitors an area for moisture events and wirelessly transmits moisture-related information to one or more notification devices. The system has a pad that includes a substrate and one or more sensors supported by the substrate. The sensor(s) emit wireless signals indicative of the moisture-related information. A sensor event communication system forwards the sensor signals to another device, such as a notification device. Portions of the system are included in a patient support apparatus, such as a bed.

It is a principal goal of the present invention is to provide a uroflowmetry device for calculating uroflowmetry data (flow rate and other data) associated with urination sessions. The invention is an in-toilet uroflowmetry device, which unlike existing stand-alone and in-toilet devices is not touched by the urine stream, and un-like with existing in-toilet devices, the toilet is useable for all normal functions by men and women. The invention also provides new data not provided by existing uroflowmetry devices. The present invention is a device comprised of an electronic open loop belt with video cameras, a single-board computer (SBC), LEDs and various sensors to start the video cameras and control the LEDs. The video data is transferred wirelessly to a website where image processing is performed on the video data, followed by computations of flow rate and additional uroflowmetry data.

A notification system is provided that provides notification of patient events such as movement and/or incontinence. The notification system provides for a plurality of different pressure sensor pads as well as an incontinence pad to be used in association with a single monitor.

A patient support apparatus includes a frame and a mattress supported by the frame and arranged to support a patient thereon. A sensor is included to detect moisture on the patient and/or the patient support apparatus. The sensor produces signals indicative of the presence of moisture on the patient support apparatus. One or more alerts are output in response to the signals provided by the sensor to notify a caregiver of the presence of moisture on the patient support apparatus.
