Set forth are vascular valves and servovalves and methods of using the same that may be positioned in the circulatory system without interrupting blood flow to facilitate solid organ transplantation so as to reduce graft organ anoxia and degradation before and after harvesting and storage, thereby minimizing late-term cardiac allograft vasculopathy as a major cause of graft failure. Along the urinary tract, bypassing bladder-generated urge sensation by diverting urine directly from the ureters to a neobladder or collection bag alleviates intractable incontinence, nocturia, urethral syndrome, overactive bladder, dysuria, or frequency. Where the lower tract is missing, a prosthesis can thwart disease and preclude the degenerative metaplastic transition to carcinoma risked when gut is used to construct a conduit for urine, a neobladder, and / or high-maintenance stoma. Druglines to valves and servovalves can directly pipeline-target medication to nidi, anastomoses, or any other trouble spots.

To properly estimate urinary frequency.SOLUTION: A nocturia frequency estimation device according to an embodiment includes data storage means for storing urination data acquired based on urination of a toilet user in a toilet device, and frequency of urination estimation means for estimating nocturia of the toilet user based on the urination data stored by the data storage means. The urination data includes urination information related to a urine volume or a urine flow rate acquired based on a state change in a bowl portion of the toilet device.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1

The invention discloses a multi-dimensional night urination behavior monitoring system based on rhythm features, and relates to the technical field of biomedical signal processing, and the system specifically comprises a data acquisition module, a rhythm feature extraction module, a urine volume dynamics modeling module, a clustering monitoring module and a real-time feedback module; collecting individual data in real time through IoT equipment and preprocessing the individual data; calculating a nocturnal urination frequency index, a nocturnal urination time concentration ratio, a urination interval rhythm variation coefficient and a deviation index based on the individual data, and performing rhythm feature extraction; performing quadratic polynomial least square fitting on the night accumulated urine volume, and calculating a urine volume acceleration index by using an obtained second derivative to quantify a urine volume generation trend; the method comprises the following steps: constructing and preprocessing a night urine multi-dimensional digital phenotypic vector matrix, fitting a Gaussian mixture model based on an expectation maximization algorithm of a Bayesian information criterion, automatically mapping individuals into four types of subtypes according to cluster center features, and outputting individual subtype labels and confidence coefficients; and obtaining a comprehensive risk score through normalized risk assessment.

The utility model relates to medical appliance technical field discloses a kind of non-invasive automatic urination recording devices for nocturia patient, including collection bucket, the top of the collection bucket is engaged with fairwater, the middle part of the fairwater is equipped with drainage port, the bottom end of the drainage port is fixed with drainage tube, the surface of the drainage tube is equipped with flow sensor and check valve, the bottom of the collection bucket is equipped with collection cylinder with screw thread, the outside of the collection bucket is equipped with handle, control module, power and output module are respectively equipped in the inside of handle;The utility model can accurately detect the amount of urine discharged by the flow sensor, and the control module records the time and urine volume and stores them to the SD card. The output module generates a hourly urination report, and the data accuracy is higher. The collection bucket is shaped like a large upper and small lower, which is beneficial to collect urine of patients of different genders and is not easy to cause urine spillage.

The invention discloses a traditional Chinese medicine composition for treating prostatic hypertrophy and a preparation method thereof, and the traditional Chinese medicine composition for treating prostatic hypertrophy comprises the following components: 12-18 parts of spina date seed, 10-14 parts of salvia miltiorrhiza, 8-12 parts of lily, 6-10 parts of poria cocos, 5-7 parts of polygala tenuifolia, 4-6 parts of valerian root, 3-5 parts of liquorice and 1-3 parts of cinnamon. The cinnamon can relax the smooth muscle of the prostate, reduce the number of times of night urination and directly improve the urination symptom of prostatic hyperplasia; the valerian root directly excites a GABAA receptor, quickly induces sleep and solves the sleep disorder of a patient, and the valerian root and the valerian root have a synergistic effect, so that local symptoms of prostate can be relieved, and related problems of a nervous system can be improved.

A device having a body defining at least one curved solid surface configured for manual supracutaneous stimulative pressure to a bodily acupoint resulting in a physiological response to a nerve leading to the spinal cord entry level and the brainstem to block or lessen overactive nerve impulses associated with overactive bladder (OAB), including nocturia, that result in a frequent urge to urinate. The body is shaped to interact and conform with the musculature and dermal folds that make up the soft contours of the human body to remain in place and to further promote stimulation of relevant acupoints.

Nocturia has been defined as the need for an individual to wake up one or more times during the night to void. Further, Nocturia detection also requires analysis of sleeping pattern of the person. In such cases a lot of assumptions are made when the person is not in bedroom during nights. A method and system for detection and validation of Nocturia in the person has been provided. The system is utilizing a statistical based analysis, a rule based analysis, a machine learning based analysis and analysis of sleeping pattern of the person to detect and validate Nocturia. The system ensures that the person is not disturbed in his / her daily activities. Further, the processes deployed in the system are completely un-supervisory in nature meaning it does not have the dependency of needing to have trained machine learning dataset.

Disclosed is a family of intranasal spray dispensers for administering uniform low doses of desmopressin so as to achieve safe antidiuresis in human patients. The dispensers of the invention may be used in the treatment of nocturia, primary nocturnal enuresis, incontinence, urinary frequency, diabetes insipidus, or any disease or syndrome where desmopressin therapy is useful or where safe temporary suppression of urine production may lead to beneficial health effects or increased convenience in voiding control.
