The caregiver, after removing the diaper 110 and the diaper pad 113 worn by the care receiver, places the diaper pad 113 on the scale 12 and weighs it.
Since the diaper pad 113 at this time absorbs the excrement, the weight of the diaper pad 113 and the excrement is measured 12
It is measured by. The weight data measured by the scale 12 is transferred to the client PC 21 as care information, and the client PC 11 subtracts the weight of the diaper pad 113 from the weight indicated by the weight data to calculate the weight of excrement. Also, the client PC 11
Acquires time information when the weight data is input.
Since the client PC 11 holds the information about the diaper pad 113 used last time as the care information, the weight of the diaper pad 113 can be automatically specified. In addition, when the used diaper 110 and the diaper pad are placed on the scale 12 and weighed, the client PC 11 also holds information regarding the diaper 110 as nursing care information, and therefore the total weight of them can be specified. The weight of excrement can be calculated by performing the same calculation as above.

The excrement weight data thus obtained is later transferred to the host PC 21 and serves as data for checking the health condition of the cared person. That is, the daily excrement data for each cared person is tabulated, and for example, when the amount (weight) is too small (when stool does not appear for 2 days or when urine is 500 cc or less per day), or When the amount (weight) is too large (when urine is 2000 cc or more)
The aggregated information will be reported to the nurse as emergency information. Whether or not the excrement absorbed by the diaper pad 113 is only urine can be determined from the weight data measured by the balance 12.

When "stool" is selected at the time of selection input in step S305, the weight of excrement measured is the weight of the stool itself. Further, in step S305, “stool + piss” is displayed in addition to the selection input buttons “stool”, “piss” and “none”, and when the care recipient excretes both stool and urine. , The caregiver inputs this button (“stool + urine”). In this case, the client PC 11 calculates the weight of the excrement from the weight data obtained from the balance 12, subtracts the weight data of the urine from the weight of the excrement based on the weight data of the urine of the care recipient held, and further Diaper pad 113 as above
Calculate the weight of stool by subtracting the weight of. In addition, even if there is no special input button for "stool + piss", "stool"
The same process may be performed by selecting and inputting a button.

Here, as the weight data of urine of the cared person, data corresponding to, for example, sex and age may be used based on a general model, and the past average of the cared person may be used. Specific urine weight data (for example, data calculated based on the total weight of urine per day and the number thereof) can also be used. The client PC 11 can notify the caregiver by storing the calculated stool weight data as history information and displaying it on the display panel. The necessary information may be transferred from the client PC 11 to the host PC 21, and the host PC 21 may calculate the weight data of the stool and store the history information. In this case, by causing the client PC 11 to transfer the history information stored in the host PC 21 and displaying it on the display panel of the client PC 11, it is possible to notify the caregiver of the history information regarding stool.
