METHOD AND DEVICE FOR ESTIMATING BLADDER STATUS

The invention relates to a method and a device for estimating a bladder state. Methods and devices for estimating the state of a bladder with respect to the likelihood of upcoming excretion of the bladder. A device performs a computer-implemented method of estimating a bladder state using a bladder monitor that collects bladder data (e.g., using ultrasound) and transmits the bladder data to a data processor for an algorithm transition to the bladder state. Such algorithms can be trained and adjusted to the bladder of a particular person. The data processor may then trigger an alarm signal if the bladder condition satisfies specific criteria indicative of an upcoming excretion event after the bladder condition has been established based on the originally profound bladder data. Such a trigger signal may be used to alert nocturia patients of impending excretion so that they may be awakened before any bed wetting occurs. 本申请涉及用于估计膀胱状态的方法和装置。特别是关于膀胱的即将来临的排泄的可能性来估计膀胱状态的方法和装置。装置执行使用膀胱监测器来估计膀胱状态的计算机实现的方法，膀胱监测器收集膀胱数据(
