Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of medical measurement technology, and in particular to a multimodal dynamic calibration method and device for accurate measurement of urine volume in an indwelling urinary catheter. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, urine volume measurement using indwelling urinary catheters primarily employs single-sensor methods, such as the weight-based method using the urine bag and the pressure-based method using the tubing. Weight-based methods calculate urine volume by monitoring changes in the weight of the urine bag, providing a relatively stable measurement basis. Pressure-based methods estimate urine flow by detecting changes in pressure signals within the indwelling catheter, offering a fast response time. These single-modal measurement methods have played a crucial role in clinical applications, providing technical support for urine volume monitoring for healthcare professionals. However, single-sensor methods are susceptible to external interference factors, such as changes in patient position, urine bag movement, and tubing blockage, which can lead to data deviations. Furthermore, single-modal data lacks cross-validation, making it difficult to identify and correct systematic errors generated during measurement, thus affecting the accuracy and reliability of urine volume measurement.

[0003] Therefore, when using a single sensor to measure urine volume, the measurement data is easily affected by interference factors, and there is a lack of effective error identification and calibration methods, resulting in insufficient measurement accuracy and reliability.

[0028] Zero-point calibration is performed on the pressure sensor and the weight sensor;

[0029] The operating status of the pressure sensor and the weight sensor is detected. If the operating status of the pressure sensor and the weight sensor is abnormal, a prompt signal is issued.

[0030] Set the data acquisition frequency and acquisition duration parameters.

[0031] Preferably, after calibrating the integrated measurement data according to the correction amount in the calibration parameter set, the method further includes:

[0049] Implementing this application has the following beneficial effects: This application provides a multimodal dynamic calibration method and device for accurate measurement of urine volume in indwelling urinary catheters. By acquiring data from both pressure and weight sensors in a dual-modal manner, a complementary measurement data source is constructed. The pressure signal reflects instantaneous flow changes, while the weight signal provides an accurate basis for cumulative volume. The combination of these two data sources overcomes the limitations of single-sensor measurement, improving the comprehensiveness and reliability of data acquisition. Data integration processing fuses measurement information from different physical quantities into comprehensive measurement data, eliminating the bias of a single data source and forming a more stable and accurate measurement basis.

Dynamic calibration processing makes targeted corrections to the measurement data based on actual deviations, achieving continuous maintenance of measurement accuracy and overcoming the technical limitation of traditional methods lacking self-calibration capabilities. Through the synergistic effect of multimodal data fusion and dynamic calibration, this application can maintain measurement accuracy and stability even in clinical environments, providing a reliable guarantee for monitoring urine volume in indwelling urinary catheters.

[0053] Figure 3 This is a computer device diagram of a multimodal dynamic calibration method for accurate measurement of urine volume in an indwelling urinary catheter, which is the subject of this application. Detailed Implementation

[0054] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.

[0055] Step 100: Collect pressure signal data and urine bag weight change data in the indwelling urinary catheter using pressure sensors and weight sensors, respectively.

[0056] Specifically, the pressure sensor is installed at a suitable location on the indwelling urinary catheter, typically about 10 centimeters above the connection between the catheter and the urine bag. The pressure sensor can monitor pressure changes within the tubing in real time. The weight sensor is located on the support device at the bottom of the urine bag and can continuously record changes in the total weight of the urine bag.

[0057] In practical applications, the pressure sensor's measurement range is typically set to 0 to 50 kPa with a measurement accuracy of 0.1 kPa, which meets the requirements for urine flow pressure detection. The weight sensor's measurement range is set to 0 to 2000 grams with a measurement accuracy of 1 gram, covering the commonly used urine bag capacity range in clinical practice. The data acquisition frequency is determined according to monitoring needs; for critically ill patients, it is usually set to once per second, while for patients under general monitoring, it can be set to once every 5 seconds.

[0058] Pressure signal data reflects the flow state and flow rate changes of urine in the catheter, with corresponding pressure pulsations occurring as urine flows through the catheter. Urine bag weight change data provides a direct measurement of urine accumulation; the weight increment directly corresponds to the newly generated urine volume. The two data sources are complementary: pressure data reflects instantaneous flow characteristics, while weight data provides an accurate basis for the accumulated amount.

[0059] Before acquiring pressure signal data within the indwelling urinary catheter and weight change data of the urine bag using pressure and weight sensors respectively, the method also includes sensor calibration and status detection processes:

[0060] Zero-point calibration is performed on both the pressure and weight sensors. Zero-point calibration is a crucial step to ensure measurement accuracy. The pressure sensor's zero-point calibration is performed at atmospheric pressure, adjusting the sensor output to the standard atmospheric pressure value of 101.325 kPa. The weight sensor's zero-point calibration is performed under no-load conditions to ensure that the weight reading in the empty urine bag state is the standard value of the urine bag's own weight. Zero-point calibration is typically performed automatically upon device startup and the calibration process lasts approximately 30 seconds.

[0061] The system monitors the operating status of the pressure and weight sensors. If either sensor malfunctions, an alert signal is issued. Operating status monitoring includes sensor responsiveness testing, signal stability verification, and measurement range confirmation. Pressure sensor status monitoring verifies sensor response by applying a standard pressure value, while weight sensor status monitoring verifies measurement accuracy by placing a standard weight. An abnormal operating status is determined when the sensor output signal exceeds the normal range, exhibits abnormal signal fluctuations, or shows no response.

[0062] Set the data acquisition frequency and duration parameters. The data acquisition frequency is determined based on the patient's monitoring level and clinical needs; the acquisition frequency for intensive care patients is set to 1 Hz, and for general patients, it is set to 0.2 Hz. The acquisition duration parameter is set according to the monitoring cycle, typically for continuous 24-hour acquisition. The data storage interval is set to save historical data every 5 minutes to ensure data security and traceability.

[0063] Step 200: Based on the pressure signal data and urine bag weight change data, generate comprehensive measurement data through data integration and processing.

[0064] Data integration and processing is the core of multimodal measurement methods. By preprocessing and fusing measurement data from different sources, more reliable comprehensive measurement results are formed.

[0065] Based on pressure signal data and urine bag weight change data, comprehensive measurement data is generated through data integration and processing, including three sub-steps:

[0066] The pressure signal data is filtered to obtain filtered pressure data. During the acquisition process, the pressure signal contains various noise interferences, including environmental vibrations, electrical interference, and electronic noise from the sensor itself. A digital low-pass filter algorithm is used, with a cutoff frequency set to 5 Hz, effectively removing high-frequency noise components. A Butterworth filter is selected as the filtering algorithm, with a filter order set to 4th order, to minimize noise impact while preserving the effective components of the signal. The filtered pressure data exhibits better stability and reliability.

[0067] Baseline correction is performed on the urine bag weight change data to obtain corrected weight data. Urine bag weight measurement is affected by factors such as the bag's own weight, temperature changes, and humidity. Baseline correction eliminates constant bias and slow drift by establishing a weight baseline. The baseline value is determined by analyzing the weight change trend over the past 15 minutes, using the least squares method to fit the baseline trend. When a significant linear drift in the weight data is detected, the baseline correction algorithm automatically adjusts the baseline value. The corrected weight data more accurately reflects the actual urine weight change.

[0068] Filtered pressure data and corrected weight data are numerically synthesized according to a preset ratio to generate comprehensive measurement data. The numerical synthesis employs a proportional allocation fusion method, assigning different weight values ​​to pressure and weight data. Under normal flow conditions, the weight data weight is set to 0.7, and the pressure data weight is set to 0.3, with weight data serving as the primary reference. Under low flow or intermittent flow conditions, the weight ratio is adjusted to 0.5 for weight data and 0.5 for pressure data, increasing the influence of the pressure signal. The comprehensive measurement data is obtained through weighted calculation using the following formula: the comprehensive measurement value equals the filtered pressure data multiplied by the pressure weight plus the corrected weight data multiplied by the weight weight.

[0069] Step 300: Calculate the deviation between the comprehensive measurement data and the preset reference value. If the deviation exceeds the preset deviation range, generate a calibration parameter set containing correction values. If the deviation is within the preset deviation range, maintain the current calibration parameter set.

[0070] Deviation detection and calibration parameter generation are crucial for ensuring measurement accuracy. By monitoring measurement deviations in real time and generating corresponding correction parameters, the reliability of measurement results can be guaranteed.

[0071] Calculate the deviation between the comprehensive measurement data and the preset benchmark value, including the benchmark value acquisition and deviation calculation process:

[0072] A reference urine volume value matching the current measurement conditions is obtained from a standard urine volume database and set as the preset baseline. The standard urine volume database contains normal urine volume ranges for patients of different ages, sexes, and health conditions. The normal urine volume range for adult men is 40 to 80 ml per hour, and for adult women it is 30 to 70 ml per hour. Reference values ​​for elderly patients and patients with special pathological conditions will be adjusted accordingly. The selection of the reference urine volume value considers the patient's basic information, the current time period, and the clinical context to ensure the rationality of the baseline value.

[0073] The deviation is calculated by comparing the aggregated measurement data with the preset benchmark value. The deviation is calculated using the absolute difference method; the deviation equals the absolute value of the aggregated measurement data minus the preset benchmark value. A positive deviation indicates that the measured value is higher than the benchmark value, while a negative deviation indicates that the measured value is lower than the benchmark value. The magnitude of the deviation reflects how close the current measurement result is to the standard reference value.

[0074] Record the time stamp of the deviation and the measurement environment parameters. The time stamp includes the specific moment and duration of the deviation detection, which facilitates tracking the trend of deviation changes. The measurement environment parameters include influencing factors such as ambient temperature, relative humidity, and atmospheric pressure. Recording the environmental parameters helps in analyzing the external causes of the deviation.

[0075] The preset deviation range is determined based on clinical accuracy requirements and is typically set to ±10% of the baseline value. For example, when the baseline value is 50 ml, the preset deviation range is 45 to 55 ml. This deviation range balances measurement accuracy and practicality; too small a range leads to frequent calibrations, while too large a range affects measurement accuracy.

[0076] Generate a set of calibration parameters containing corrections, including the process of determining corrections and combining parameters:

[0077] Based on the magnitude and direction of the deviation, pressure and weight corrections are determined. The determination of these corrections is based on deviation analysis and sensor characteristics. When the deviation primarily originates from pressure measurements, the pressure correction is set to 80% of the deviation, and the weight correction to 20%. When the deviation primarily originates from weight measurements, the weight correction is set to 80% of the deviation, and the pressure correction to 20%. This allocation of corrections ensures the relevance and effectiveness of the calibration.

[0078] The compensation correction amount is determined based on historical calibration records. This compensation correction amount is based on statistical analysis of past calibration data, identifying the periodicity and trend characteristics of measurement deviations to predict and compensate for potential future deviations. The historical data analysis period is typically the calibration records of the most recent 7 days, and the compensation correction amount is calculated using a moving average algorithm. When a significant deviation trend is detected, the compensation correction amount is increased accordingly, typically set at 5% to 15% of the reference deviation.

[0079] The pressure correction, weight correction, and compensation correction are combined to generate a calibration parameter set. The calibration parameter set organizes each correction parameter in a data structure, including the correction value, applicable conditions, and validity period. The generation of the calibration parameter set follows a priority principle: pressure and weight corrections have immediate effects, while compensation corrections serve as long-term trend corrections.

[0080] The specific rules for determining pressure and weight correction amounts based on the magnitude and direction of the deviation include:

[0081] If the deviation is positive and exceeds the first preset threshold, the pressure correction is increased and the weight correction is decreased. The first preset threshold is set according to the measurement accuracy requirements, typically 15% of the reference value. A positive deviation exceeding the first preset threshold indicates that the measured value is significantly higher than expected, possibly due to an oversensitive pressure sensor or a low reading from the weight sensor. The pressure correction is increased by 60% of the deviation, and the weight correction is decreased by 40% of the deviation.

[0082] If the deviation is negative and its absolute value exceeds the second preset threshold, the pressure correction is reduced and the weight correction is increased. The second preset threshold is equal to the first preset threshold to maintain calibration symmetry. A negative deviation exceeding the second preset threshold indicates that the measured value is significantly lower than expected, usually caused by insufficient sensitivity of the pressure sensor or an excessively high reading from the weight sensor. The correction is adjusted in the opposite direction to that for positive deviations to ensure calibration effectiveness.

[0083] If the absolute value of the deviation is within the range of the first and second preset thresholds, the pressure correction and weight correction are adjusted according to the preset adjustment range. The preset adjustment range is set to 30% of the deviation, which is relatively small to avoid over-calibration. When the deviation is within an acceptable range, calibration is mainly based on fine-tuning to maintain measurement stability.

[0084] Step 400: Calibrate the comprehensive measurement data according to the correction values ​​in the calibration parameter group to obtain the target urine volume value.

[0085] Calibration is the final step in the measurement process. It involves applying calibration parameters to correct the comprehensive measurement data and outputting accurate and reliable urine volume measurement results.

[0086] The calibration process employs an additive correction mode, where the target urine volume value equals the comprehensive measurement data plus the pressure correction, weight correction, and compensation correction. The correction calculation considers the cumulative effect and mutual influence of each correction to ensure the reasonableness of the calibration results. When multiple corrections are added in the same direction, the total correction does not exceed 25% of the comprehensive measurement data to prevent distortion caused by over-calibration.

[0087] The calibration process also includes outlier detection and boundary constraints. Outlier detection compares the changes in values ​​before and after calibration, triggering an alarm when the calibration correction exceeds a preset limit. Boundary constraints ensure that the target urine volume is within a physiologically reasonable range, typically with a lower limit of 0 ml and an upper limit determined based on the patient's condition and monitoring duration.

[0088] After calibrating the integrated measurement data according to the corrections in the calibration parameter set, the method also includes result verification and data management processes:

[0089] The target urine output was compared and validated against a pre-defined reasonable range. This range was determined based on clinical medical standards and individual patient characteristics; for normal adults, the reasonable range for hourly urine output is 30 to 100 ml. The upper and lower limits of this range were individually adjusted based on the patient's age, weight, disease state, and medication effects. Validation was performed by determining the numerical range to ensure the measurement results conformed to physiological principles.

[0090] If the target urine volume exceeds the preset reasonable range, it is marked as abnormal data and recalibration is performed. Abnormal data marking includes the time of exceedance, the magnitude of exceedance, and possible cause analysis. The recalibration process uses stricter calibration parameters and a more conservative correction margin; the adjustment range of the calibration parameters is reduced to 50% of the original range to avoid calibration oscillations.

[0091] If the target urine volume is within a preset reasonable range, the target urine volume and the corresponding calibration record are stored. Data storage uses a time-series database format, and the record includes measurement time, raw data, calibration parameters, target value, and quality identifier. Saving calibration records provides fundamental data support for subsequent data analysis and calibration parameter optimization.

[0092] The multimodal calibration method for urine volume measurement using indwelling urinary catheters provided in this embodiment establishes a complementary measurement data foundation through parallel data acquisition from pressure and weight sensors. Data integration and processing eliminates the limitations of a single data source, improving the reliability of measurement data. Deviation detection and calibration parameter generation establish proactive error identification and correction capabilities, ensuring the continuous maintenance of measurement accuracy. Calibration processing, through the synergistic effect of multiple correction parameters, achieves optimized output of measurement results. The overall technical solution maintains stable measurement performance even in complex clinical environments, providing reliable technical support for medical monitoring.
