It is a block diagram which shows the structure of 50. FIG.

  The measurement system includes a first measurement device 10, an information terminal 20, a second measurement device 30, a urine flow measurement device 40, and an information processing device 50. Between the first measurement device 10 and the information processing device 50, between the information terminal 20 and the information processing device 50, between the second measurement device 30 and the information processing device 50, between the urine flow measurement device 40 and the information processing device 50. Are connected by wireless communication, and information can be transmitted and received. The devices are connected to each other by, for example, wireless communication such as Bluetooth (registered trademark) or wireless LAN. The information transmission / reception means may be a communication means or a broadcasting means. In the present embodiment, considering that the first measuring device 10, the information terminal 20, the second measuring device 30, the urine flow measuring device 40, and the information processing device 50 are used in different places, respectively. In order to enable communication even when they are arranged at different locations, between the first measurement device 10, the information terminal 20, the second measurement device 30, the urine flow measurement device 40, and the information processing device 50, Although it is preferable to connect by wireless communication, it can be realized even by wired connection. Further, transmission / reception of information may be performed via a removable storage medium.

  The first measurement apparatus 10 includes a sensor unit 101, a first transmission unit 102, a power supply unit 103, a reception unit 104, a control unit 105, a storage unit 106, and a time measuring unit 107. The sensor unit 101 includes a reception unit 1011 and a signal acquisition unit 1012.

  The sensor unit 101 is disposed in the bladder, receives a physical quantity related to urine, and acquires a detection signal that is a signal corresponding to the received physical quantity. The “physical quantity related to urine” in the present embodiment is a physical quantity that is directly or indirectly related to urine function, and is specifically pressure. However, other than pressure, for example, temperature may be used. The “physical quantity” is a quantity that expresses a physical property or state, and here is a quantity that expresses a pressure. Specifically, the sensor unit 101 converts the received pressure into an electrical signal. A sensor that converts pressure into a detection signal is generally known as a pressure sensor, and since the basic structure thereof is known, detailed description thereof is omitted. As the pressure sensor, for example, a capacitance type pressure sensor is known.

  The receiving unit 1011 receives a pressure to be measured in the living body. The accepting unit 1011 changes, for example, the shape and property according to the pressure of the measurement target. The accepting unit 1011 is a part that comes into contact with a living body or a substance existing in the living body if necessary at the time of measurement. For example, in the pressure sensor, the receiving unit 1011 corresponds to a pressure-sensitive diaphragm having a piezoresistance, a silicon vibrator, or the like.

  The signal acquisition unit 1012 acquires a detection signal that is a signal corresponding to the pressure received by the reception unit 1011. Specifically, the signal acquisition unit 1012 converts the pressure received by the reception unit 1011 into a signal. For example, the signal acquisition unit 1012 acquires a signal corresponding to a change in shape or property of the reception unit 1011. For example, when the reception unit 1011 is a pressure-sensitive diaphragm having a piezoresistance, the signal acquisition unit 1012 extracts a change in the resistance value of the piezoresistor that changes due to stress acting on the piezoresistor due to the pressure on the diaphragm as an electric signal. . The signal acquisition unit 1012 may include an amplification unit such as an amplifier that amplifies the detection signal.

  The first transmission unit 102 transmits the detection signal acquired by the sensor unit 101 by wireless as an example here. Moreover, the 1st transmission part 102 may output the information which shows the time which acquired the detection signal which the time measuring part 107 mentioned later outputs, for example, time, a synchronous information, matched with a detection signal. Further, the detection signal and information indicating the time associated with the detection signal may be read from the storage unit 106 and the like described later and transmitted. The first transmission unit 102 may transmit the detection signal to the outside in a wireless manner. For example, the detection signal acquired by the signal acquisition unit 1012 may be transmitted as an analog signal, or the detection signal may be converted into a digital signal and transmitted. The first transmission unit 102 includes an AD (analog / digital conversion means (not shown)) that converts the analog detection signal acquired by the sensor unit 101 into a digital signal in order to transmit the detection signal as a digital signal. The AD conversion means may be included in the sensor unit 101 described above, and the detection signal may be a signal obtained by digitizing an electrical signal. For example, the signal is transmitted at a predetermined interval, specifically, at a constant interval or an irregular interval, etc. The transmission interval is appropriately determined from the accuracy of accepting physical quantities, the total time required to accept physical quantities, and the like. The first transmission unit 102 can be realized by, for example, driver software of an output device, an output device, etc. For example, the first transmission unit 102 is a wireless communication means, device, or the like. Specifically, it is realized by communication means such as a wireless LAN, short-range wireless communication means such as Bluetooth, etc. The first transmission unit 102 may be realized by wireless broadcasting means. The first transmission unit 102 may transmit the detection signal acquired by the sensor at any time. However, the storage unit 106 described later temporarily stores the detection signal acquired by the sensor unit 101 in a memory or the like (not shown). The first transmission unit 102 may collectively transmit one or more stored detection signals at a predetermined timing, and the first transmission unit 102 may detect the detection signal. The first transmitter 102 may be an integrated circuit such as an LSI (Large Scale Integration), for example. Is the current possible.

It can be realized as a circuit that accumulates or transforms automatically.

  The receiving unit 104 receives a control signal that is a signal for controlling the first measuring apparatus 10 transmitted from outside by radio. For example, a control signal transmitted from the information processing apparatus 50 or the like, for example, an instruction to start measurement or an instruction to set the time for synchronization between apparatuses is received. The receiving unit 104 is preferably a wireless or wired communication means, but can also be realized by a means for receiving a broadcast. The receiving unit 104 is realized by, for example, a communication unit such as a LAN, a short-range wireless communication unit such as Bluetooth (registered trademark), or the like. In addition, the receiving unit 104 may include an antenna or the like used when receiving a control signal.

The instruction to do is output. Alternatively, when the receiving unit 104 receives a control signal that instructs the output of the detection signal stored in the storage unit 106, the control unit 105 detects the detection signal stored in the storage unit 106 with respect to the first transmission unit 102. An instruction to output is output. For example, when the receiving unit 104 receives a control signal for calibrating the detection signal output from the first measurement apparatus 10, the control unit 105 calibrates the detection signal output from the signal acquisition unit 1012, For example, zero point alignment, correction of the detection signal output from the signal acquisition unit 1012 based on temperature information included in the control signal, and the like may be performed. Further, for example, when the receiving unit 104 receives a control signal for resetting the detection signal output from the first measurement apparatus 10, the control unit 105 outputs the detection signal output from the signal acquisition unit 1012 at the time of factory shipment or the like. The initial state may be restored, or the output start time of the first transmission unit 102 may be reset. Further, the remaining power of the power supply unit 103 may be output based on the control signal received by the receiving unit 104. Further, the time of the time measuring unit 107 may be adjusted according to a control signal for adjusting the time received by the receiving unit 104. The configuration and method for calibrating and resetting the detection signal output from the sensor or the like are known techniques, and thus detailed description thereof is omitted. The control unit 105 can be usually realized by an MPU, a memory, or the like. The processing procedure of the control unit 105 is usually realized by software, and the software is recorded on a recording medium such as a ROM. However, it may be realized by hardware (dedicated circuit). In addition, when it is not necessary to control the operation | movement of the 1st measuring apparatus 10 from the outside etc., this control part 105 may be abbreviate | omitted.

  The accumulation unit 106 accumulates the detection signal in a storage medium such as a memory. The storage unit 106 may store information indicating the time at which the detection signal is acquired, which is output from the time measuring unit 107 such as a clock, in association with the detection signal. The accumulated detection signal is output from the first transmission unit 102 in accordance with an instruction from the control unit 105. As a result, it is possible to save power compared to the case where the detection signal is constantly output. The accumulating unit 106 stores a detection signal or the like in a storage medium such as a memory or a hard disk (not shown). The storage unit 106 itself may or may not have these storage media. The storage medium may be a nonvolatile storage medium or a volatile storage medium. The accumulation described here is a concept including temporary storage at the time of transmitting data and the like.

  The timer 107 measures the time. For example, the timekeeping unit 107 may be a clock indicating time or a timer. Further, it may be a counter or the like that counts pulses having a predetermined cycle and uses the count result as time information. Further, the timer 107 may output synchronization information such as a pulse output at a predetermined timing that can be used for synchronization instead of the time information. In this case, the first transmission unit 102 or the like may associate this synchronization information with the detection signal.

  The information terminal 20 includes a urination information reception unit 201, a urination information transmission unit 202, a storage unit 203, a power supply unit 206, a reception unit 204, a control unit 205, and a timing unit 207.

For example, it is preferable to have a weight and size that can be operated by holding with one hand such as a PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) or a mobile phone. Or you may make it incorporate the structure of the information terminal 20 in PDA or a mobile telephone. Then, the functions of the PDA, the mobile phone, etc., and the information terminal 20 may be appropriately switched and used. In this case, a structure that can be shared by the PDA, the mobile phone, etc., and the information terminal 20, for example, a processor, a communication means, etc. may be shared.

  The urination information reception unit 201 receives input of urination information that is information regarding urination. Specifically, information necessary for analysis of urination of the subject who has placed the sensor unit 101 of the first measurement device 10 in the bladder, for example, behavior of the subject, symptoms of the subject, This is information such as text information indicating an environment or the like that affects the state. For example, “information on urination” is information on the environment such as “temperature”, “humidity”, “weather”, “location”, and the like. The “information regarding urination” is, for example, subject information. Subject information includes information on human behavior such as `` getting up '', `` sleeping '', `` walking '', `` sitting '', `` running '', `` eating '', `` urinating '', `` feeling hungry '', `` Subject's subjective symptoms such as “pain”, “intention to urine”, “incontinence”, human condition such as “body temperature”, and urination status for each urination such as “good” or “dissatisfied” This is information indicating the result of self-evaluation.Normally, when a doctor or the like evaluates a user's urination state, etc., in addition to data such as urine flow rate, the self-evaluation result such as an impression of the user's urination However, if the user submits the results of such a self-assessment on a form or the like, it is troublesome to fill in and it is easy for omissions to occur. In order to manage the self-assessment results of data as data, In contrast, the information terminal 20 has a configuration in which the self-evaluation result of the urination state can be input, thereby giving the user an impression at the time of urination. The urine flow rate can be easily input immediately after the measurement, and the self-evaluation result of the urination state can be correlated with the information measured on the other urine based on the time. The information input means received by the urination information receiving unit 201 may be anything such as a button, a keyboard, a mouse, a menu screen, etc. However, depending on the items of urination information input in advance Button, for example, the button “I was urinating,” etc., and when this button is pressed, the urination information reception unit 201 sends the button to the button. That accepts a voiding information in accordance with the shown acceptance of, preferably because it can reduce the burden that the user learn the operation. The reception of the instruction to the button means, for example, that the button is pressed, that the button is touched for a certain time, or that the button is selected. By receiving an instruction to this button, for example, urination information “I was urinating”, for example, an event corresponding to the event is received. This button may be any button such as a button using a mechanical switch or a button using a touch panel. For example, when the information terminal 20 is incorporated in a mobile phone, a PDA, etc., and the mobile phone, the PDA, etc., and the information terminal 20 can be switched and used, the urination information reception unit 201 is connected to a PDA touch panel, a mobile phone, etc. Buttons such as dial keys can be used.

The urination information transmission unit 202 transmits the urination information to the information processing apparatus 50 by wired or wireless communication via wireless communication such as Bluetooth or a wireless network such as wireless LAN. There is no limitation on the timing or trigger at which the urination information transmitting unit 202 outputs the urination information. For example, the urination information transmission unit 202 may output urination information when an instruction to output urination information is received from the urination information reception unit 201 or a reception unit (not shown). Moreover, the urination information transmission unit 202 may output urination information with a trigger that the information terminal 20 and the information processing apparatus 50 are wirelessly connected.

For example, it is good also as a structure which provided the hook surface and the loop surface of surface fasteners, such as a magic tape (trademark), in the surface which the container 41 and the mounting base 42 oppose. In this way, by placing the container 41 lightly on the mounting table 42, the container 41 can be fixed on the mounting table 42, and the container 41 is pulled lightly in the direction opposite to the mounting table 42 side. Thus, it can be removed from the mounting table 42. Here, the diameter of the mounting table 42 is smaller than the diameter of the concave portion below the container 41, and the height of the mounting table 42 is higher than the depth of the concave portion below the container 41. That is, the upper part of the mounting table 42 is a convex part. When the container 41 is placed on the mounting table 42 so as to cover the lower concave portion, the magnet 48 attracts the metal 11 and the mounting table 42 is inserted into the lower concave portion of the container 41. Accordingly, even when a horizontal force is applied to the container 41 due to movement of the hand, the momentum of the urine during discharge, or the like when the urine flow measuring device 40 is held in hand, the container 41 The side surface in the vicinity of the lower end is brought into contact with the side surface of the mounting table 42, and the horizontal movement of the container 41 can be restricted to prevent the container 41 from being detached from the mounting table 42. In particular, the urine flow measurement device 40 of the present embodiment is portable and measures the urine flow while being held by hand, so that the container 41 may be strongly hit against an obstacle such as a toilet. In such a case, the container 41 can be easily prevented from being removed by the concave portion at the bottom of the container 41.

  The measuring unit 43 measures the weight of the container 41 placed on the placing table 42 a plurality of times at predetermined time intervals. Thereby, the measurement part 43 can measure the weight of the urine received in the container 41 several times at predetermined time intervals. The total weight of urine received in the container 41 measured at each predetermined time interval is the urine flow rate. The measuring unit 43 measures the mounting table 42, the container 41, and the weight of urine received in the container 41. However, the measuring unit 43 has a measured weight of “0” with the mounting table 42 attached in advance. It is possible to measure the container 41 and the weight of urine received in the container 41. In addition, the measurement value may be set so that the measured weight indicates “0” in a state where the container 41 is attached. In this way, the measurement unit 43 can measure only the amount of urine. Can be measured. Here, the amount of urine is measured as a weight, but the amount of urine may be considered as a volume as appropriate in consideration of the specific gravity of urine. The measurement unit 43 includes, for example, a weighing sensor, a calculation unit such as an MPU that obtains a weight measurement result using the output of the weighing sensor, a memory, and the like. The mounting table 42 described above may be considered as a table for mounting the measurement object of the measuring unit 43. As the measurement unit 43, a configuration of a device capable of measuring weight and mass using a weighing sensor, such as a normal electronic scale, can be used. Since such a configuration is known, description thereof is omitted. For example, in an electronic scale that can measure up to a weight of about 1 kg, the resolution at the time of measurement is usually about 10 mg, and a drop of urine is about 50 mg. Application to the measurement unit 43 makes it possible to accurately measure the flow rate of urine. The “predetermined time interval” may be a fixed interval or an irregular interval. For example, the predetermined time interval may be about 0.5 seconds to 1 second. Further, the number of measurements of the measurement unit 43 may be any number as long as it is a plurality of times. However, it is preferable not to end the urination by the end. The measurement of the measurement unit 43 may be started from the time when the urine flow rate measuring device 40 is turned on, or after the power is turned on, when the measurement unit 43 detects that the first urine is received in the container 41 You may start with.

  The grip 44 has a bar-like shape that is attached so as to be bent and extends in the horizontal direction. By using such a rod-shaped gripping portion 44, it is possible to make it difficult for scattered urine to be applied to the hand holding the urine flow measuring device during urine collection. Further, when not in use, the grip portion 44 can be folded to be compactly stored. In addition, it is preferable to provide a lock mechanism that can be locked in a state where the grip 44 is kept horizontal at a portion where the grip 44 is attached. For example, in FIG. 7a, the locked state is released by pressing the lock pin 44a.

  The urine flow rate transmitter 402, the storage unit 403, the receiver 404, the controller 405, the power supply unit 406, and the timer 407 of the urine flow rate measuring device 40 described above are stored in any part of the urine flow rate measuring device 40. For example, it may be stored in the mounting table 42 or the measurement unit 43.

  FIG. 8 is a view for explaining a measuring apparatus 1000 arranged in the bladder and rectum. FIG. 8 shows a cross section of the human body 80 in the vicinity of the bladder 81 and the rectum 82. As shown in the figure, the sensor unit 101 is disposed in the bladder 81. The rectal sensor unit 301 is disposed in the rectum 82. The measuring apparatus 1000 receives the intravesical pressure transmitted via the urine 83 in the receiving unit 1011 of the sensor unit 101. In addition, the intrarectal sensor unit 301 receives the intraabdominal pressure in the rectum. In the figure, for convenience of explanation, the scale, aspect ratio, and the like of the measuring apparatus 1000 and the human body may be different from actual ones. The same applies to other drawings.

  Hereinafter, a specific operation of the measurement system will be described. First, as shown in FIG. 8, the tester places the sensor unit 101 of the measurement device 1000 in the bladder 81 and the rectal sensor unit 301 of the measurement device 1000 in the rectum 82, and then the measurement unit 1001. By operating the menu or the like, measurement of the intravesical pressure, which is the pressure in the bladder, and measurement of the intraabdominal pressure, which is the pressure in the rectum, are started.

  When the measurement is started, the signal acquisition unit 1012 of the sensor unit 101 receives a detection signal, which is a signal obtained by converting the physical quantity received by the reception unit 1011 into an electrical signal, at a predetermined timing, here as an example regularly, get. Since the accepting unit 1011 is in contact with urine, when the bladder internal pressure becomes high, the pressure is transmitted to the accepting unit 1011 via the urine, and the accepting unit 1011 accepts that the pressure has increased. Similarly, when the intravesical pressure decreases, the receiving unit 1011 receives that the pressure has decreased. The signal acquisition unit 1012 sequentially acquires detection signals corresponding to the pressure received by the reception unit 1011. The detection signal is digitized and output to the storage unit 106, for example.

  The accumulating unit 106 accumulates the detection signals acquired by the signal acquiring unit 1012 of the sensor unit 101 in a memory or the like (not shown) in association with information on the time when the bladder pressure is measured, which is sequentially output from the time measuring unit 107. Go. This measurement process is performed until a measurement end instruction is given to the measurement unit 1001.

  FIG. 9 is a diagram showing a management table for managing the detection signal and time stored in the memory or the like by the storage unit 106. This management table has attributes of “time” and “detection signal”. “Time” is time information output by the clock unit 107 when the detection signal is acquired. The left two digits indicate “hour”, the next two digits indicate “minute”, and the right three digits indicate , “Second” is expressed in units of 1/10 second. Here, it is assumed that it is an absolute time such as a Japanese standard time indicated by a clock or the like. The “detection signal” is the value of the detection signal acquired by the sensor unit 101, specifically, the value of the intravesical pressure.

  Similarly, the rectal sensor unit 301 sequentially obtains rectal detection signals. Then, the acquired rectal detection signal is stored in a memory (not shown) or the like by the storage unit 106 in association with time information output from the time measuring unit 107.

  When the information terminal 20 is turned on, it enters a state where it can accept urination information. And when a test subject presses the button of the information terminal 20 in order to input the information regarding the urination of the item designated beforehand, the urination information corresponding to the button is received. For example, when the subject feels strong urine and presses one button on the information terminal 20, for example, the button “strong urine (strong)”, an event indicating that the button “strong urine (strong)” is pressed is output, and urination is performed. The information receiving unit 201 receives urination information corresponding to the button “intention to urinate (strong)”. The storage unit 203 acquires the current time from the time measuring unit 207, and stores the received urination information in association with the acquired time information in a memory (not shown) in the information terminal 20. At this time, as shown in FIG. 6, the display 208 of the information terminal 20 displays the message “There is a strong intention of urine” corresponding to the accepted urination information and the elapsed time up to the present for confirmation. Is done. The information terminal 20 repeats this process every time the subject presses the button.

  FIG. 10 is a diagram showing a management table for managing the time and the urination information stored in the memory or the like by the storage unit 203. This management table has attributes of “time” and “urination information”. “Time” is time information acquired by the storage unit 203, the left two digits indicate “hour”, the next two digits indicate “minute”, and the right three digits indicate “second” as 10 minutes. Is expressed in units of 1 second. Here, the absolute time is assumed. “Urination information” is a character string of urination information received by the urination information reception unit 201.

  The urine flow rate measuring device 40 is in a state in which the urine flow rate can be measured when the power is turned on. When the subject urinates the container 41, the urine flow rate measuring unit 401 measures the weight of the container 41 at every predetermined measurement interval, and the urine is the total flow of urine at every predetermined measurement interval. Get the flow rate. Each value shown here is for explanation and is different from the actual measurement value. Note that since the urine flow rate measurement unit 401 measures weight, in practice, the weight value is acquired as a measurement result. Here, since the measurement target is urine that is liquid, 1 g of urine is obtained. Is converted into 1 ml of urine, and the urine flow rate in units of ml is accumulated. In addition, here, in order to simplify the explanation, it is assumed that values up to 0.1 ml are measured. The “urine flow rate” is the total flow rate of urine obtained at each measurement timing, here the total weight. Here, it is assumed that the urine flow rate measuring unit 401 is calibrated so that the value becomes 0 in a state where urine is not put in the container 41. The urine flow rate measuring unit 401 may calculate a value obtained by subtracting the measured value of the previous urine weight from the measured urine weight value, and output only the urine flow rate difference.

  The accumulating unit 403 of the urine flow measuring device 40 associates the urine flow for each measurement interval acquired by the urine flow measuring unit 401 with the time information at the time of measurement output from the time measuring unit 407 in a memory (not shown) or the like. accumulate.

  FIG. 11 is a diagram showing a management table for managing the measured values of the urine flow accumulated by the accumulation unit 403 and the time when the measurement was performed. This management table has attributes of “time” and “urine flow rate”. “Time” is time information acquired by the storage unit 403, the left two digits indicate “hour”, the next two digits indicate “minute”, and the right three digits indicate “second” for one second. Expressed in units. Here, the absolute time is assumed. The “urine flow rate” is a value obtained by converting the total weight of urine for each measurement interval acquired by the urine flow rate measurement unit 401 into a urine flow rate. Each value shown here is for explanation and is different from the actual measurement value.

  Such measurement of the urine flow rate is performed every time urination is performed.

  Next, it is assumed that the inspection for a predetermined period is completed. In this case, after placing the measuring apparatus 1000, the information terminal 20, and the urine flow measuring apparatus 40 in an environment where wireless connection with the information processing apparatus 50 is possible, the tester displays the menu screen or the like of the information processing apparatus 50.

And the corresponding time information are read out and transmitted to the information processing apparatus 50 wirelessly.

  The receiving unit 501 of the information processing apparatus 50 receives a detection signal as shown in FIG. 9 transmitted from the measurement apparatus 1000, a rectal detection signal (not shown), and time information associated therewith. The accumulation unit 502 accumulates the detection signal received by the reception unit 501, the intrarectal detection signal, and time information associated therewith in a storage medium (not shown) or the like.

  In addition, the receiving unit 501 of the information processing apparatus 50 receives urination information as illustrated in FIG. 10 transmitted from the information terminal 20 and time information associated with the urination information. The storage unit 502 stores the urination information received by the reception unit 501 and the time information associated with the urination information in a storage medium (not shown).

Data indicating the constructed urine flow rate is accumulated by the accumulation unit 502.

The output unit 504 includes data indicating the detrusor contraction pressure and urine flow rate data processed by the processing unit 503, detection signals, rectal detection signals, urination information, and urine flow rate information accumulated by the accumulation unit 502. , And the data for displaying the graph is configured and displayed on a display or the like.
