TITLEMETHOD AND GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE FOR SETTING AND DISPLAYING OSTOMY INFORMATIONCROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
[0001] The present application claims the benefit and priority of U.S. Provisional Application No. 63 / 510,682, entitled METHOD AND GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE FOR SETTING AND DISPLAYING OSTOMY INFORMATION, filed June 28, 2023, the disclosure of which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.BACKGROUND
[0002] The present disclosure pertains to a method and graphic user interface for setting and displaying an orientation of an ostomy leakage detection system.
[0003] An ostomy pouch system typically includes a pouch formed from opposing sidewalls defining an internal collection area, an inlet opening for receiving a stoma, and an ostomy appliance for attaching the pouch to a user. The ostomy appliance may include, for example, an ostomy barrier of a one-piece pouch system, which is attached to one of the pouch sidewalls proximate an inlet opening, or a faceplate for a two-piece pouch system configured to releasably engage a pouch, and a barrier ring. The ostomy appliance may include a skin barrier material for adhering to and sealing against user’s peristomal skin surrounding the stoma.
[0004] The ostomy appliance may be susceptible to ostomy effluent leakage, and the seal formed between the skin barrier material and the user may weaken. Oftentimes, the user may be unaware of, or cannot easily assess, an extent of weakening in the seal. Thus, the user may not become aware of a weakened seal, and consequently, the ostomy effluent may cause skin health complications and may leak through to an exterior of the ostomy appliance.1SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26)
[0005] Leakage detection systems may include an electronic device that processes leak data and detects leakage in ostomy appliances. However, communicating detailed information and data regarding the nature and location of a leak to a user can be difficult. For example, a graphic user interface can display leakage information, but it may be unclear to the user where on the accessory the leakage is detected. In such systems, the leakage can be detected on one section or quadrant of the accessory. But displaying more detailed information on the detected leakage may not be possible without knowing the orientation of the accessory on the user.
[0006] Accordingly, it is desirable to provide a method and graphic user interface for setting and displaying ostomy information.BRIEF SUMMARY

[0044] While the present disclosure is susceptible of embodiment in various forms, there is shown in the drawings and will hereinafter be described presently preferred embodiments with the understanding that the present disclosure is to be considered an exemplification and is not intended7SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26)to limit the disclosure to the specific embodiments illustrated. The words “a” or “an” are to be taken to include both the singular and the plural. Conversely, any reference to plural items shall, where appropriate, include the singular. The words “first,” “second,” “third,” and the like may be used in the present disclosure to describe various information, such information should not be limited to these words. These words are only used to distinguish one category of information from another. The directional words “top,” “bottom,” up,” “down,” front,” “back,” and the like are used for purposes of illustration and as such, are not limiting. Depending on the context, the word “if’ as used herein may be interpreted as “when” or “upon” or “in response to determining.”
[0045] The present disclosure provides a method and graphical user interface (GUI) for setting and displaying an orientation of an ostomy leakage detection system. The orientation of the ostomy leakage detection system can be used to display leakage information. The leakage information can include a leakage status, a leakage level, and a status summary of the ostomy leakage detection system. The ostomy leakage detection information can be displayed on a mobile device that can include a touch- sensitive or touch screen display, haptic feedback, a speaker, and a digital camera. The ostomy leakage detection system can be configured to detect ostomy effluent leakage under a skin barrier and to alert a user. The ostomy leakage detection system can provide multiple benefits to the user. For example, the system can allow the user to intervene and change a skin barrier and / or ostomy pouch system before a leak progresses which can cause embarrassment and inconvenience to the user. Further, the ostomy leakage detection system can assist in maintaining a user’s skin health by detecting a leakage in its early stage to prevent prolonged skin exposure to ostomy effluent, which can lead to skin health complications. The ostomy leakage detection system can also support a user’s emotional well-being by reducing anxiety associated with a risk of leakage. The ostomy leakage detection system may be applied to an ostomy barrier of a one-piece8SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26)pouch system or a faceplate for a two-piece pouch system.
[0046] FIG. 1 illustrates an ostomy two-piece pouch system 10. According to example embodiments shown in FIG. 1, the ostomy system 10 can generally include a sensing accessory 12, an ostomy barrier appliance 14, an ostomy bag 16, a wearable device 18, and a mobile device 20. The sensing accessory 12 can include a sensing region 22, a tail region 24, and a connection region 26. The sensing region 22 can include an inlet opening 28 configured to surround a stoma (not shown). The tail region 24 can include a connector opening 30 configured to electrically and mechanically connect with the wearable device 18. The ostomy bag 16 may be configured to receive and contain bodily waste and can include a pouch coupling member 32 configured to engage with a barrier coupling member 15 to attach the ostomy bag 16 to the ostomy barrier appliance 14.
[0047] FIG. 2 illustrates the ostomy pouch system 10 mounted to a user. According to example embodiments shown in FIG. 2, the sensing accessory 12 can be mounted to a user using an adhesive and the inlet opening 28 can surround the stoma. The ostomy barrier appliance 14 can be mounted over the sensing region 22 with an adhesive and can surround the stoma. The ostomy pouch 16 can be mounted on the ostomy barrier appliance 14 using the pouch coupling member 32. The wearable device 18 can be attached to the sensing accessory 12 using the connector opening 30. The wearable device 18 can be mounted on a user using a patch or an adhesive.
[0048] According to example embodiments, the ostomy leakage detection system may comprise three subsystems - the sensing accessory 12, the wearable device 18, and a mobile application on the mobile device 20. The sensing accessory 12 may be provided as an accessory for an ostomy pouch system. The sensing accessory 12 may include sensors for detecting the presence of ostomy effluent. The sensing accessory 12 may be configured to communicate leakage 9SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26)detection signals to the wearable device 18.
[0049] The wearable subsystem 18 may be a wearable device configured to perform at least some processing of leakage detection signals and to alert a user of a leakage event. The wearable subsystem 18 may be configured to communicate electronically through a wired or wireless communication system with the mobile application. Such electronic communications may include raw data as acquired from the sensing accessory 12 or a leak status of the sensing accessory 12. The mobile application may be a digital subsystem installed on the mobile device 20. The mobile application may be configured to further process leak detection data and provide an alert or other information about an ostomy appliance to a user.
[0050] The mobile application can display a GUI with a leakage status, a leakage level, and a status summary for alerting a user of the ostomy leakage detection system to the presence of ostomy effluent (leakage or moisture) under the sensing accessory 12 (or hydrocolloid barrier). The status summary can include a text description of the general state of the sensing accessory 12 and any recommendations for maintaining the sensing accessory 12. The mobile application can further display a current wear time and interactive screens for setting the orientation of the sensing accessory 12, setting alerts for leakage detected, and acquiring and displaying a history of leakage detected.
[0051] The sensing accessory 12 can acquire data related to leakage and moisture conditions detected at certain locations along the accessory including on annular rings or levels around the central opening and / or other sections thereof such as quadrants of the levels. The acquired data can be leakage data and moisture data. The wearable device 18 can determine if a leakage or moisture has been detected based on the leakage data and moisture data. The mobile application on the mobile device 20 can receive the leakage data, moisture data, leakage detected information, 10SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26)and moisture detected information and display a GUI for indicating the identification of a leak, moisture, or dry state to a user. The GUI can include a leakage level and status summary that can indicate to the user critical information that the user can use to make their ostomy experience easier by providing both visual and textual information. Thus, a leakage detection system can be improved. For example, the leakage level can be “Normal” and the status summary indicator 140, 440 can display “No moisture detected.” The user can then quickly understand that their ostomy appliance is working properly. In another example, the GUI can display indications corresponding to detected leakage conditions of the ostomy appliance. According to embodiments presented herein, such conditions and corresponding indications can be tiered based on the severity of the detected leakage (e.g. a first condition representative of a minor leak, a second condition representative of a moderate leak, and a third condition representative of a critical leak). It will be understood that any number of levels or tiers may be used without departing from the scope of the subject invention, and that any number of predetermined thresholds can be used to differentiate the designated tiers without limitation. In one example, the GUI can display information indicating that the detected leakage is associated with conditions representative of a more severe leak and can display an indication of the same (e.g. “Level 3.) The status summary indicator 140, 440 can concurrently display additional information or recommendations such as “Barrier change recommended” to enable the user to quickly understand that they should change their sensing accessory 12 without having to determine that there is a problem and what the problem entails.
[0052] FIG. 3A shows a body-side view of a sensor circuit 34. According to example embodiments shown in FIG. 3A, the sensor circuit 34 can generally include a conductive sensor 36, a conductive trace 38, and a connection point 40. The sensor circuit 34 can span the sensing region 22, the tail region 24, and the connection region 26. The conductive sensor 36 can be11SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26)configured to detect a leak around a stoma. The conductive trace 38 can be located on the tail region 24 and may be configured to connect the conductive sensor 36 to the connection point 40. The connection point 40 can be located on the connection region 26 and may be configured to connect to a connection pad on the wearable device 18. The sensing region 22 can be broken into four quadrants (e.g. QI, Q2, Q3, and Q4). In some embodiments, the tail region 24 may be oriented down or south and for simplicity the four quadrants may be called NE, SE, NW, and SW. However, the directional words “NW”, “SE”, “NW”, “SW”, and the like are used for purposes of illustration and as such, are not limiting. In some other embodiments, the orientation of the tail region may be in another direction and as such the quadrants QI, Q2, Q3, and Q4 can be used..
[0053] According to example embodiments, the conductive sensor 36 can include multiple pairs of conductive traces that can be arranged in radial sensing levels (or rings) with levels broken into the four quadrants (e.g., QI, Q2, Q3, Q4 or NE, SE, NW, SW) of sensor pairs for detecting the direction of fluid and moisture progression. The radial sensing levels can include a first radial sensing level (or first ring) located nearest the inlet opening 28, a second outermost radial sensing level (or second ring) located near the outer edge of the sensing region 22, and one or more radial sensing levels (or rings) located between the first and second radial sensing levels. The conductive traces can be adjacent to ground traces so that resistance may be measured between the two for detecting fluid and moisture. In another embodiment, the conductive traces can detect fluid and moisture based on resistance, resonance frequency, or the like.
[0054] The conductive sensor 36 may be arranged in a predetermined pattern in the sensing region 22. For example, the sensor circuit 34 may be generally arranged in a circular or semicircular pattern. Other suitable patterns can be provided, such as an oval or oblong pattern, or other closed or substantially closed loop patterns without limitation. The sensor circuit 34 in the sensing12SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26)region 22 may be arranged at one or more radial distances from the inlet opening 28. For example, the sensor circuit 34 may include a plurality of electrically conductive traces arranged at a plurality of different radial distances from the inlet opening 28.
[0055] The sensor circuit 34 may include conductive traces and conductive pads or points that may be formed by printing on a circuit substrate using a conductive ink via a conventional printing process, for example, screen printing.
[0056] FIG. 3B shows a body-side view of a sensor circuit 34’. According to example embodiments shown schematically in FIG. 3B, the sensor circuit 34’ can include a conductive sensor 36’. The conductive sensor 36’ can include a first radial sensing level 44 (or first ring) located near the inlet opening 28, a second radial sensing level 46 (or second ring) located between the first radial sensing level 44, and a third radial sensing level 48, and the third radial sensing levels 48 (or third ring) located near the outer edge of the sensing region 22.
[0057] FIGS. 4, 5, and 7 shows a GUI 110, 210, 410. According to example embodiments shown in FIG. 4, 5, and 7, the GUI 110, 210, 410 can be displayed on display 100. The display 100 can include a touch-sensitive surface for interacting with the GUI 110, 210, 410. The GUI 110, 210, 310, 410, 510, 610, 710 can display a plurality of screens or pages including, for example, a Home Screen, Orientation Settings Screen, History Screen, Alerts Settings Screen, and other Screens for interacting with the ostomy leakage detection system. In various embodiments, the display 100 is part of a mobile device (e.g. mobile device 20) used by a user.
[0058] Home Screen
[0059] The mobile application can include a Home Screen that can display the leakage information about an ostomy leakage detection system. FIG. 4, 5, and 7 shows GUI 110, 210, 410 displaying a Home screen. As used herein, the reference to a Home Screen is for general13SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26)exemplification in accordance with embodiments presented herein and is intended to refer to a screen that is the default or primary GUI that can be displayed or readily accessed upon the booting of the software application to present data of the type disclosed by the subject application. From the subject description, persons of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that embodiments presented by the subject application can readily display information or indications of the type disclosed herein in association with GUIs that are not formally designated or otherwise categorized as a home screen, and / or identify GUIs with other feature(s) or presentations as being the home screen. Such embodiments are within the scope of the disclosed invention without limitation.
[0060] According to example embodiments shown in FIG. 4, 5, and 7, the Home Screen can display a plurality of detection states: (e.g. Normal, Leakage or Moisture). Upon determining a normal operating condition, the GUI 110, 210, 410 can indicate that no significant moisture has been detected. The normal state can be represented by gray or other light colors. Upon detecting and determining a leak, the GUI 110, 210, 410 can display information associated with a leakage state. Such information can indicate that significant moisture has been detected by the leakage detection system and can display other indicia that can visualize the location and severity of the leakage relative a rendering corresponding to the sensing accessory 12. The leakage state can be represented by colors that are different from those associated with the normal state, such as a dark gray (or orange) color. The moisture state can indicate that significant moisture has been detected, but it does not meet certain predetermined or pre-programmed criteria associated with leakage. The moisture state can be represented by dots or other visual elements. The GUI 110, 210, 410 can be updated as leakage progresses until the sensing accessory 12 is changed. These updates may be accompanied by alerts, based on user-established settings.
[0061] According to example embodiments shown in FIG. 4, 5, and 7, the GUI 110, 210, 41014SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26)can include a sensing region interface element 122, 222, 422. The sensing region interface element 122, 222, 422 can include a first ring interface element 144, 244, 444 a second ring interface element 146, 246, 446 and a third ring interface element 148, 248, 448. The first ring interface element 144, 244, 444 can display a status of, and detected conditions associated with, the first radial sensing level 44, and the second ring interface element 146, 246, 446 can display a status of, and detected conditions associated with, the second radial sensing level 46, and the third ring interface element 148, 248, 448 can display a status of, and detected conditions associated with, the third radial sensing levels 48. The sensing region interface element 122, 222, 422 can display indication for a leakage and or moisture detected alert on the four quadrants QI, Q2, Q3, Q4 of the sensing region interface element 122, 222, 422 in response to a leakage and / or moisture detected on the corresponding quadrant of the sensing region 22 of the sensing accessory 12.
[0062] The sectional detection of a leakage and / or moisture can be related to the orientation of the sensing accessory 12 on the user’s body. The sensing region 22 of the sensing accessory 12 can be broken into multiple sections or quadrants (e.g. four quadrants QI, Q2, Q3, Q4 or NW, NE, SW, SE). These quadrants may be fixed relative to the sensing accessory 12 and as such the quadrants will rotate based on the orientation of the sensing accessory 12. The quadrants of the sensing region 22 of the sensing accessory 12 can be displayed as quadrants on the sensing region interface element 122, 222, 422. In some example embodiments, the user can input the orientation of the sensing accessory 12 on the mobile device on an orientation settings screen, as discussed in regard to FIGS. 6A-6C. This process can allow the sensing region interface element 122, 222, 422 to have an orientation that matches the orientation of the sensing accessory 12 on the user’s body.
[0063] According to example embodiments shown in FIG. 4, 5, and 7, the GUI 110, 210, 410 can include a screen indicator 134, 234, 434 a user information indicator 136, 236, 436 a level15SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26)indicator 138, 238, 438 a status summary indicator 140, 240, 440 a current wear indicator 142,242, 442 and a orientation settings icon 150, 450. The sensing region interface element 122, 222,422 can display if there is a leak in the sensing region 22 based on a color displayed on the ring interface elements 144, , 244, 444, 146, 246, 446, 148, 248, 448. For example, a light color can show no leakage detected and a dark color can show a leakage detected.
[0064] The screen indicator 134, 234, 434 can provide an indication with information to identify the GUI that is currently being displayed. For example, the screen indicator 134, 234, 434 can display a “Home” text to display that the GUI is currently at a home screen which shows the leakage status. Other screens can include a “Settings” screen where settings can be set, a “Device” screen where the device information can be displayed, an “Alert” screen where alerts can be added, an “Information” screen where information and frequently asked questions can be found, etc.
[0065] The user information indicator 136, 236, 436 can display information about the user like the user’s name and current time. For example, the user information indicator 136, 236, 436 can display a “GOOD MORNING ROBERT” indication to inform the user that it is morning time and that he is logged in as Robert. An icon can also be displayed to provide an indication of the time of day, such as a rising sun to display morning time.
[0066] The level indicator 138, 238, 438 can display a level of leakage detected. For example, a “NORMAL” indication (FIG. 5) can be displayed to inform the user that no moisture is detected and a “LEVEL 1” indication (FIG. 4) can be displayed to inform the user that an initial leak is detected. Similarly, a “LEVEL 2” (FIG. 7) indication can be displayed to inform the user that a leak is progressing and that the user should consider checking for a leakage. In another example, a “LEVEL 3” indication can be displayed to inform the user that a leak in an outer ring is detected and that they should consider changing the sensing accessory 12. The level indicator 138 can 16SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26)display a different color indication based on the level of leakage. For example, the “LEVEL 1” indication can be a light color, the “LEVEL 2” indication can be a bright color, and the “LEVEL3” indication can be dark color. For example, the “LEVEL 1” indication can be a light transparent orange color, the “LEVEL 2” indication can be a bright orange color, and the “LEVEL 3” indication can be a dark red color. In another example, the color can be a blue color or other colors that indicates a greater level of alertness for a leakage.

An example of this is18SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26)shown in FIG. 5 with GUI 210. In an alternative embodiment, if the user does not input an orientation, then the GUI 110, 210, 410 may automatically select a default orientation. In such an embodiment, the GUI 110, 210, 410 may indicate that the display orientation is a default orientation, and require the user to confirm the displayed orientation or change the orientation. In one embodiment, the default orientation may be the last orientation that was stored for a previous sensing accessory 12. In an alternative embodiment, the default orientation may be a specific direction, for example, down as shown in FIG. 4 by tail region interface element 124. In some embodiments, the user can pre-define a default orientation for the sensing accessory 12. The predefined default orientation may correspond to the orientation that the user most commonly uses for the sensing accessory 12. In an embodiment, the orientation settings icon 150, 252, 450 can indicate that a default orientation is being used.

The status summary indicator 240 can display a “No moisture or leak detected” indication. The current wear indicator 142 can display a “CURRENT WEAR ABOUT 1.5 DAYS” indication. The Home Screen may include an orientation settings icon 252 to readily access the orientation input screen, or the user may be prompted to provide orientation when changing their product. There is no orientation information provided on the GUI 210 until the GUI receives an orientation input. For example, there is not a tail region interface element or quadrants shown on the GUI 210. In an alternative embodiment, the GUI 210 may show a default orientation for the quadrants of the sensing region interface element 222 and the tail region interface element. As discussed previously, the default orientation may be predefined by the user or it could be the last orientation stored by the user for a previous sensing accessory 12. In such an embodiment, the GUI 210 may indicate that the default orientation is displayed and require the user to confirm the default orientation or change the orientation.
