Development and clinic application of multi sensor of urinary incontinence using optical fiber

本研究采用腈纶光纤，研制了尿失禁监测系统及其组成部分。这种感应机制是基于纸张吸收尿液时透光率的变化。本系统采用市场上销售的检测纸对尿液及其成分进行检测。实验证实了蛋白质和葡萄糖的检测结果。为降低尿失禁的运行成本，采用适合检测尿失禁的棉织物作为传感部件。并利用该传感部分开发了遥测系统。该遥测系统适用于尿失禁及其组成部分的同时检测。所提出的尿失禁及尿液成分监测系统将有助于监测患者的健康状况。

In this study, a simultaneous monitoring system of urinary incontinence and its components was developed using acrylic optical fiber. The sensing mechanism is based on the change in the light penetration rate of paper when it absorbs urine. In this system the inspection paper sold in the market is used to detect urine and its components. The detections of protein and glucose were confirmed experimentally. For lower running cost of urinary incontinence, cloth made from cotton which is suitable to detect urinary incontinence was used as sensing part. A telemeter system using this sensing part was also developed.This telemeter system is applicable to apply to the simultaneous detections of urinary incontinence and its components.The proposed system of urinary incontinence and components of urine would be useful to monitor the condition of health of patient.
