Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of communication technology and the field of health care products, in particular to an intelligent urine and stool monitoring and alarm device based on the Internet of Things and an implementation method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the deepening of the population aging trend and the continuous growth of the special patient population, the market demand for adult paper diapers is showing an increasingly upward trend. However, the functions of the current adult paper diaper products on the market are mostly limited to the absorption of excretions, and lack the ability to remind caregivers or family members of the user to change. This defect not only makes the user long-term in a wet and uncomfortable state, greatly increasing the possibility of skin infection, but also adds a lot of inconvenience to caregivers and family members of the user, who have to check frequently to determine whether the paper diaper needs to be changed. Currently, there are some paper diapers on the market that have Bluetooth communication reminder functions. When such paper diapers are wet, the internal sensor will transmit information to the mobile phone end through the Bluetooth gateway, thereby realizing the reminder function. However, the transmission of Bluetooth signals has a clear distance limitation, and once the straight-line distance between the sensor and the Bluetooth gateway exceeds 10 meters, the information transmission will be difficult to maintain stability; in addition, if there is an object blocking between the paper diaper and the mobile phone, the signal will be interrupted and effective and timely reminders cannot be achieved. In addition, some paper diapers on the market currently have limitations in identification functions. They can only perform simple identification of urine and cannot identify stool, and also cannot determine the amount of urine. In the case of small amount of urine, the paper diaper often does not need to be changed, and such inaccurate identification will also cause unnecessary trouble to caregivers and family members.
