Calculate the weight. The control unit 44 outputs weight data indicating the calculated weight of urine to the storage unit 42.

The control unit 44 detects the hematuria state of urine based on the light intensity data stored in the storage unit 42.

The control unit 44 determines the hematuria state of urine based on the light intensity data stored in the storage unit 42. When blood is contained in urine, the light is absorbed by the blood (blood cells), so that the amount of light received by the light receiving unit 30b is reduced. That is, since the color density of urine changes depending on the amount of blood contained in urine, the amount of light received in the light receiving unit 30b changes. When the voltage value is high, the amount of blood contained in urine is small, and when the voltage value is low, the amount of blood contained in urine is large. The storage unit 42 has a table in which the voltage value indicated by the light intensity data and the hematuria state (level) are associated with each other. The control unit 44 refers to the table based on the voltage value and determines the state of hematuria.

The control unit 44 determines the state of hematuria in 6 stages. Specifically, the control unit 44 is, for example, level 0 (Lv.0) when the voltage value is within the first range, and level 1 (Lv.1) when the voltage value is within the second range. ), Level 2 (Lv.2) when the voltage value is within the third range, level 3 (Lv.3) when the voltage value is within the fourth range, and the voltage value within the fifth range. In some cases, it is determined to be level 4 (Lv.4), and if the voltage value is within the sixth range, it is determined to be level 5 (Lv.5). Each level can be set, for example, based on a hematuria scale set by the content of red blood cell mass. The control unit 44 may constantly determine the state of hematuria, or may perform it at predetermined time intervals. The control unit 44 outputs hematuria data indicating the state of hematuria to the storage unit 42.

The control unit 44 controls the display of the display unit 46 in response to an operation of an operation unit (not shown) such as a keyboard. The display unit 46 is a computer display. For example, when the control unit 44 receives an operation requesting the display of the weight of the patient's urine and the state of hematuria, the control unit 44 acquires the weight data and the hematuria data from the storage unit 42 and causes the display unit 46 to display the data.

As shown in FIG. 7, the display unit 46 may display, for example, the accumulated urine volume, the state of hematuria, and the determination result for each patient. As the accumulated urine amount, the current amount of urine (for example, 25 ml) and the amount that can be stored in the storage portion 102 of the urine bag 100 (for example, 2500 ml) are displayed. As the hematuria state, the level of the current hematuria state (for example, Lv.1) is displayed. The determination result shows the comprehensive determination result of the accumulated urine volume and the state of hematuria. The determination is made by the control unit 44. For example, "○ (maru)" when both the accumulated urine volume and the hematuria state have not reached the predetermined threshold value, and when at least one of the accumulated urine volume and the hematuria state is approaching the predetermined threshold value. If at least one of "Δ (sankaku)", accumulated urine volume and hematuria exceeds the threshold value, "x (x)" is used.

Further, as shown in FIG. 8, the display unit 46 may display, for example, data of a plurality of patients. Each patient is displayed in a tab. The data for each patient can be displayed by selecting the tab. As the data of each patient, a diagram showing the accumulated urine volume, the state of hematuria, and the state of the reservoir 102 may be displayed. As the accumulated urine amount, the current amount of urine (for example, 25 ml) and the amount that can be stored in the storage portion 102 of the urine bag 100 (for example, 2500 ml) are displayed. As the hematuria state, the level of the current hematuria state (for example, Lv.1) is displayed. The figure which shows the state of the storage part 102 is a figure which can visually recognize the amount of urine stored in a storage part 102. The height position of urine in the figure changes according to the accumulated urine volume.

Further, as shown in FIG. 9, the data of each patient may be displayed in a list on the display unit 46. As the data of each patient, for example, the accumulated urine volume and the state of hematuria are displayed. As the accumulated urine amount, the current amount of urine (for example, 25 ml) and the amount that can be stored in the storage portion 102 of the urine bag 100 (for example, 2500 ml) are displayed. As the hematuria state, the level of the current hematuria state (for example, Lv.1) is displayed. In the display unit 46, the data of each patient may be distinguished in the color of the display based on the state of accumulated urine volume and hematuria. Further, the display unit 46 may display a graph showing the time transition of the urination volume and the hematuria state of each patient.

The control unit 44 generates a notification signal when the weight of urine exceeds a predetermined threshold value in the weight data. Further, the control unit 44 generates a notification signal when the hematuria state exceeds a predetermined level in the hematuria data. The threshold value of the weight of urine can be set according to the amount that can be stored in the storage portion 102 of the urine bag 100. The threshold value of the hematuria state can be arbitrarily set according to the patient's state and the like. The control unit 44 transmits a notification signal including information for identifying the patient, the accumulated urine volume of urine, and / or the state of hematuria to any mobile terminal 7. Further, the control unit 44 may display an image based on the notification signal on the display unit 46. At this time, a buzzer or the like may be emitted.

The transmission unit 48 is a wireless module that wirelessly transmits a notification signal. The transmission unit 48 transmits the notification signal generated by the control unit 44 to the mobile terminal 7.
