Description

METHOD AND GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE FORDETERMINING AND DISPLAYING OSTOMY LEAKAGE DETECTION INFORMATIONCROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0001] The present application claims the benefit and priority of U.S. Provisional Application No. 63 / 510,654, entitled METHOD AND GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE FOR DETERMINING AND DISPLAYING OSTOMY LEAKAGE DETECTION 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 determining and displaying information corresponding to an ostomy appliance. More specifically, for determining and displaying information corresponding to a wear time 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 beunaware 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 skm health complications and may leak through to an exterior of the ostomy appliance.

[0005] Leakage detection systems may include an electronic device that processes leak data and detects leakage in ostomy appliances. However, a user may need to know additional information to understand the status of the ostomy system. For example, how long the user has been wearing the ostomy system.

[0006] Accordingly, it is desirable to provide a method and graphic user interface for displaying more comprehensive and easier to understand ostomy leakage detection information.BRIEF SUMMARY

[0045] 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 intended 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.”

[0046] The present disclosure provides a method and graphical user interface (GUI) for determining and displaying moisture and ostomy leakage detection information of an ostomy leakage detection system The leakage information can include a wear time, 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 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 leakage detection 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-piece pouch system or a faceplate for a two-piece pouch system.

[0047] 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.

[0048] 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 attached to the ostomy barrier appliance 14 by aligning the sensing region 22 with the ostomy barrier appliance 14 and using an adhesive. The sensing region 22 can be mounted to a user using an adhesive and surrounding the stoma with the inlet opening 28. The ostomy bag 16 can be mounted on the ostomy barrier appliance 14 using the barrier coupling member 32. The wearable device 18 can be attached to the sensing accessory 12 using the tail region 24 and connector opening 30. The wearable device 18 can be mounted on a user using a patch or an adhesive.

[0049] 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 detection signals to the wearable device 18.

[0050] The wearable device 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 device 18 may include one or more processors and a non-transitory computer-readable memory storinginstructions executable by the one or more processors, or the like. The wearable device 18 may be configured to communicate electronically through a wire 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 or detecting for all or part 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.

[0051] 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.

[0052] 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, 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. “Uevel 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. Thus, a leakage detection system can be improved.

[0053] 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 sensingregion 22, the tail region 24, and the connection region 26. The conductive sensor 36 can be 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

[0054] 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.

[0055] 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 semi-circular patern. Other suitable patterns can be provided, such as an oval or oblong patern, or other closed or substantially closed loop paterns without limitation. The sensor circuit 34 in the sensing 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.

[0056] 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.

[0057] 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.

[0058] Home Screen

[0059] FIGS. 4, 5, and 7 illustrate a GUT 110, 210, 510. According to example embodiments shown in FIG. 4, 5, and 7, the GUI 110, 210, 510 can be displayed on display 100. The display 100 can include a touch-sensitive surface for interacting with the GUI 110, 210, 510. The GUI 110, 210, 510 can display a plurality of pages or screens including, for example, a home screen and other screens for interacting with the ostomy leakage detection system. As used herein, the reference to a Home Page is for general exemplification in accordance with embodiments presented herein and is intended to refer to a screen that is the default or primary GUI that can bedisplayed 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] The mobile application can include a Home screen that can display the leakage information about an ostomy leakage detection system and a wear time. FIG. 4, 5, and 7 shows GUI 110, 210, 510 displaying a Home screen. According to example embodiments shown in FIG.4, 5, and 7, the Home screen can display an estimated wear time and a current wear time. The wear time can be a time that the sensing accessory 12 has been mounted to a user. The estimated wear time can be calculated based on a detected change in the sensing accessory 12 or a continuous reading from the sensing accessory 12. The current wear time can be calculated based on a recorded time that the sensing accessory 12 was changed. The wear time can be displayed in different colors or animation to indicate to the user the wear time. The wear time allows a user to quickly understand when a barrier change is required or how long left the current barrier has, thus improving ostomy technology.

[0061] 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, 510 can indicate that no significant moisture has been detected. The normal state can be represented by gray or other light colors. Upon detectingand determining a leak, the GUI 110, 210, 510 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, 510 can be updated as leakage progresses until the sensing accessory 12 is changed. These updates maybe accompanied by alerts, based on user-established settings.

[0062] According to example embodiments shown in FIG. 4, 5, and 7, the GUI 110, 210, 510 can include a sensing region interface element 122, 222, 522. The sensing region interface element 122, 222, 522 can include a first ring interface element 144, 244, 544 a second ring interface element 146, 246, 546 and a third ring interface element 148, 248, 548. The first ring interface element 144, 244, 544 can display a status of, and detected conditions associated with, the first radial sensing level 44, and the second ring interface element 146, 246, 546 can display a status of, and detected conditions associated with, the second radial sensing level 46, and the third ring interface element 148, 248, 548 can display a status of, and detected conditions associated with, the third radial sensing levels 48. The sensing region interface element 122, 222, 522 can display indication for a leakage and or moisture detected on the four quadrants QI, Q2, Q3, Q4 of the sensing region interface element 122, 222, 522 in response to a leakage and / or moisture detected on the corresponding quadrant of the sensing region 22 of the sensing accessory 12.

[0063] 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, 522. 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 FIG. 6B. This process can allow the sensing region interface element 122, 222, 522 to have an orientation that matches the orientation of the sensing accessory 12 on the user’s body.

[0064] According to example embodiments shown in FIGS. 4, 5, and 7, the GUI 110, 210, 510 can include a tail region interface element 124, 224, 524, a screen indicator 134, 234, 534, a user information indicator 136, 236, 536, a level indicator 138, 538, a status summary indicator 140, 240, 540, a current wear indicator 142, 242, 542 and a sensing accessory settings icon 152, 252, 552. The sensing region interface element 122, 222, 522 can display if there is a leak in the sensing region 22 based on a color displayed on the ring interface elements 144, 244, 544, 146, 246, 546, 148, 248, 548. For example, a light color can show no leakage detected and a dark color can show a leakage detected.

[0065] The tail region interface element 124, 224, 524 can display the orientation of the tail region 24 on the user. The tail region interface element 124, 224, 524 can rotate around the outer edge of the sensing region interface element 122, 222, 522 and display the orientation of the tail region 24 on the user based on its position (FIG. 6B). For example, the tail region interface element124 can be located near the level indicator 138 to display that the tail region 24 is located towards the user’s legs (6 O’clock). In another example, the tail region interface element 124, 224, 524 can be located near the user information indicator 136, 236, 536 to display that the tail region 24 is located towards the user’s chest (12 O’clock). Tn another example, the tail region interface element 124, 224, 524 can be oriented to mirror the location of the tail region 24 on the user so that when the user sees the sensing region interface element 122, 222, 522 and the tail region interface element 124, 224, 524 it mirrors the sensing region 22 and the tail region 24.

[0066] The screen indicator 134, 234, 534 can provide an indication what section of the display process the GUI is currently displaying. For example, the screen indicator 134, 234, 534 can display a “Home” indication 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.

[0067] The user information indicator 136, 236, 536 can display information about the user like the user’s name and current time. For example, the user information indicator 136, 236, 536 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.

[0068] The level indicator 138, 238, 538 can display a level of leakage detected in the form of an alpha-numeric indicator message. For example, a “NORMAL” indication can be displayed to inform the user that no moisture is detected and a “LEVEL 1” indication (FIGS. 4 and 7) can be displayed to inform the user that an initial leak is detected. Similarly, a “LEVEL 2” (FIG. 5)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 ostomy accessory 12. The level indicator 138 can 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 “LEVEL 3” 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 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. It will be recognized by persons of ordinary skill in the art that the indication displayed by level indicator 138, 238, 538 can include any combination of words, numbers, graphics and colors without limitation.

[0069] The status summary indicator 140, 240, 540 can display other information corresponding to detected conditions of the sensing accessory 12 such as a summary notification of the leakage state of the sensing region 22. The status summary indicator 140, 240, 540 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. For example, when the sensing accessory is in a normal operating condition, the status summary indicator 140, 240, 540 can display a message such as “No moisture detected.” The user can then quickly understand that their ostomy appliance is working properly. In another example, the status summary indicator 140, 240, 540 can display a message such as “Barrier change recommended” and the user can quickly understand that they should change their sensing accessory 12 without having todetermine that there is a problem and what the problem entails. In yet another example, the status summary indicator 140, 240, 540 can display a message such as “Leak progressing, may want to change barrier.” The incorporation of this information can improve a leakage detection system.

[0070] The current wear indicator 142, 242, 542 can display an estimated time that the user has been wearing the sensing accessory 12. The mobile application can determine a current wear time that can indicate how long the user has been wearing the sensing accessory 12. The current wear time can be calculated based on determining when a new sensing accessory 12 was attached to the user or was last changed (either detected automatically or based on user input). For example, the wear time can be an estimate based on a detected barrier change. The wear time can also be unknown. For example, the wear time may be unknown if a barrier change was performed, and the mobile application did not detect the change but received a user input that a barrier change was performed without receiving a time of the barrier change from the user. As another example, the wear time may be unknown if the sensing accessory 12 disconnects from the wearable device 18. For example, the disconnection of the sensing accessory 12 could be due to a variety of reasons such as the sensing accessory 12 pulling free from the wearable device 18. However, one of the reasons the sensing accessory 12 may disconnect is that the user changed the sensing accessory 12 and barrier appliance 14. As such, the wear time may become unknown and need verified by the user if the sensing accessory 12 disconnects. The wear indicator 142, 242, 542 can indicate if the wear time is unknown for the current barrier appliance 14 and sensing accessory 12.

The sensing accessory change information section 760 can display information about confirming that the sensing accessory 12 has been changed and informing the user what it means to confirm change of a sensing accessory 12 and barrier appliance 14 (e.g., “Change Sensing Accessory” and “Are you sure? This will acknowledge a sensing accessory change and clear leaks. Make sure you have changed your barrier ”). For example, if the user confirms that the sensing accessory 12 and barrier appliance 14 were changed, then the mobile application will clear any leak detection data that has been collected and reset the current wear time for the sensing accessory 12 and barrier appliance 14. This is to clear any leak detection data from an old sensing accessory 12 and begin collecting new leak detection data on a new sensing accessory 12 that has been installed to the new barrier appliance 14. It also resets the current wear time for the new barrier appliance 14 since a new barrier appliance 14 is installed with a new sensing accessory 12. For example, each time the sensing accessory 12 is changed, a new barrier appliance 14 and a new sensing accessory 12 may be installed with the previous barrier appliance 14 and previous sensing accessory 12 being removed and disposed. The confirm change push button 762 can be displayed as a shape with an indication therein (“Confirm Change”) to signify that selecting the push button may cause the previously detected leak data to be cleared and allow new leak detection data collection to begin.

[0085] FIG. 9 shows a method 800 for displaying ostomy leakage detection system information. The method may be applied to a computing device such as a mobile device, personal computer, or server.

[0086] In step 810, the computing device can obtain leakage data. For example, the leakage data can be an input from the wearable device 18. The leakage data can include whether a leakage is detected and the location along the wearable device (e g., by ring and / or quadrant) the leakage is detected.

[0087] In step 820, the computing device can display, on a touch screen display, a barrier settings icon. The barrier settings icon can access a barrier change screen for setting a new barrier time entry. For example, the user can select the barrier settings icon to access the barrier change screen. The barrier settings icon can be a sensing accessory settings icon 152, 252, 552 that can display a shortcut icon for accessing the barrier change settings of the sensing accessory 12.

[0088] In step 830, the computing device can display, on the touch screen display, the barrier change screen. The barrier change screen can include a time interface element for setting the new barrier time entry. For example, the GUI 310 displaying the barrier change screen.

[0089] In step 840, the computing device can determine a current wear time of the sensing accessory based on the new barrier time entry. The current wear time, for example, can be determined based on the time entry entered by the user and the current time. In another example,the current wear time can be calculated based on a time where the mobile application detected a new sensing accessory and the current time.

[0090] The computing device can receive a signal from the wearable device 18 indicative of the current sensing accessory 12 being disconnected and / or a new sensing accessory 12 being connected. For example, the wearable device 18 can determine that the sensing accessory 12 was disconnected due to no longer reading appropriate leak detection signals from the sensing accessory 12. As an another example, the wearable device 18 can receive leak detection signals indicative of the current sensing accessory 12 being changed. The wearable device 18 may determine that a new sensing accessory 12 was connected due to the signals received from the sensing accessory 12 changing to indicate no leak detected and / or no moisture detected. For example, the signals from the sensing accessory 12 may indicate that a previously detected leak is no longer detected meaning the sensing accessory 12 and barrier appliance 14 were replaced. As yet another example, the wearable device 18 can detect that a resistance of the sensing accessory 12 changed indicating that a new sensing accessory 12 was connected. Once the wearable device determines that a new sensing accessory 12 is connected, the wearable device can transmit a signal to the computing device indicative of a new sensing accessory 12 and a new barrier appliance 14 being installed. The computing device may use the signal from the wearable device 18 to determine that a new sensing accessory 12 was connected and record the time of the connection as the beginning of the wear time for the new sensing accessory 12 and the new barrier appliance 14. While the previous description discusses the wearable device 18 monitoring and analyzing the data to determine the connection of a new sensing accessory 12, in an alternative embodiment, the wearable device 18 may transmit the raw data to the computing device and the computing devicemay analyze the data to determine the connection of a new sensing accessory 12.

[0091] After the computing device receives a signal or signals indicative of a new sensing accessory 12 being installed, the computing device may then display the GUI 310 (FIG. 6A) to the user to verify if the sensing accessory 12 and barrier appliance 14 were changed. In yet another example, the user may directly enter into the computing device that the barrier appliance 14 and sensing accessory 12 were replaced (e.g. GUI 610, 710 of FIGS. 8A and 8B).

[0092] In step 850, the computing device can display, on the touch screen display, a sensing region interface element. The sensing region interface element can indicate the leakage detected on the sensing accessory.

[0093] In step 860, the computing device can display, on the touch screen display, the current wear time. The current wear time can be an estimate of the time the user has been wearing the ostomy system. For example, the time shown may be “over 12 hours” or “about 3 days” instead of an exact time. This may be easier for the user to understand and make a decision about changing the ostomy system since the user just needs to understand when it may be better to change the ostomy system rather than exactly how long they have been wearing the ostomy system. For example, wearing an ostomy system for about 3 days may mean changing the ostomy system when a leakage is detected while after 12 hours the user may want to just monitor any progression of a leak.

[0094] FIG. 10 shows a method 900 for displaying a status summary. The method may be applied to a computing device such as a mobile device, personal computer, or server.

[0095] In step 910, the computing device can obtain a leakage data.

[0096] In step 920, the computing device can determine a current wear time is invalid. Forexample, the computing device can determine that a new sensing accessory has been attached and the current wear time has not been updated. In at least one aspect, the current wear time can be unconfirmed by the user or unknown to the computing device. A new sensing accessory being connected can be determined based on automatically detecting the new sensing accessory or by a user updating the mobile application that a new accessory is being used.

[0097] The automatically detecting a new sensing accessory can occur in a variety of ways. In one aspect, the computing device can receive a signal from the wearable device 18 that the sensing accessory 12 has been disconnected. This disconnection can indicate that a new barrier appliance 14 and a new sensing accessory 12 are being applied. As such, the computing device can determine that a new sensing accessory may have been added and a new orientation may need to be requested. The computing device may then display the GUI 310 (FIG. 6A) to the user to verify if the barrier was changed. In an alternative aspect, the computing device can receive a signal from the wearable device 18 indicative of a new sensing accessory 12 being connected. For example, the wearable device 18 may detect that a new sensing accessory 12 has been connected based on the resistances of the sensing accessory 12, the wearable device 18 may detect the connection of a new sensing accessory 12, or the wearable device 18 may determine that a new sensing accessory 12 was connected due to the signals received from the sensing accessory 12 changing to indicate no leak detected and / or no moisture detected, each of these cases are discussed above in more detail in regard to step 840 of FIG. 9. In an alternative embodiment, the analysis may be performed by the computing device with the wearable device 18 transmitting data to the computing device.

[0098] After a new sensing accessory is detected, the computing device may then display the GUI 310 (FIG. 6 A) to the user to verify if the sensing accessory and barrier appliance 14 werechanged and then request the orientation of the new sensing accessory 12. In any of these aspects, the computing device can record the time of the connection of the new sensing accessory 12 and store this time as the beginning of the wear time for the new barrier appliance. The user may also directly update the computing device that the sensing accessory 12 and barrier appliance 14 were changed by inputting the change into the computing device (e.g., GUI 610, 710 of FIGS. 8A and 8B).

[0099] In step 930, the computing device can display, on a touch screen display, the barrier change screen (e.g., GUI 310).

[0100] In step 940, the computing device can determine the current wear time of the sensing accessory based on the barrier time entry.

[0101] In step 950, the computing device can display, on the touch screen display, a sensing region interface element.

[0102] In step 960, the computing device can display, on the touch screen display, the current wear time.
