Data collection schemes for a medical appliance and related methods
Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a monitor device for an ostomy system. The monitor device comprises: a processor; memory; and a first interface connected to the processor and the memory. The first interface comprises a plurality of terminals and a data collector. The plurality of terminals includes a first terminal that forms an electrical connection with a first electrode of an ostomy appliance of the ostomy system and a second terminal that forms an electrical connection with a second electrode of the ostomy appliance. The data collector is coupled to the first and second terminals and comprises a data collection configured to collect data from the plurality of terminals according to a primary data collection scheme and collect data from the plurality of terminals according to a secondary data collection scheme. The primary data collection scheme is different from the secondary data collection scheme.
1. A monitor device for a medical system, the monitor device comprising:
a processor;
memory; and
a first interface connected to the processor and the memory, the first interface comprising:
a plurality of terminals including a first terminal and a second terminal, the first terminal configured to form an electrical connection with a first electrode of a medical appliance of the medical system and the second terminal configured to form an electrical connection with a second electrode of the medical appliance, and
a data collector coupled to the first terminal and the second terminal and configured to:
collect data from said first and second terminals according to a data collection scheme selected from a primary data collection scheme and a secondary data collection scheme, the primary data collection scheme being different from the secondary data collection scheme, the data collector comprising a data collection controller configured to select the data collection scheme based on a control signal indicative of the data collection scheme from the processor.
2. The monitor device of claim 1 , wherein a sampling rate of the primary data collection scheme is different than a sampling rate of the secondary data collection scheme.
3. The monitor device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to determine the control signal based on an operating state of the medical appliance.
4. The monitor device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to determine the control signal in accordance with an orientation of the user.
5. The monitor device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to determine the control signal in accordance with an activity level of a user.
6. The monitor device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to determine the control signal in accordance with a distance between the controller and an accessory device.
7. The monitor device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to determine the control signal in accordance with a power capacity of a power unit of the monitor device.
8. The monitor device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to determine the control signal in accordance with a model type of the medical appliance.
9. The monitor device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to determine the control signal in accordance with a wear time of the medical appliance.
10. The monitor device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to determine the control signal in accordance with preferences of a user of the medical appliance.
11. The monitor device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to determine the control signal in accordance with a location of a user of the medical appliance.
12. A method for data collection from an medical appliance, the method comprising:
selecting a data collection scheme from a primary data collection scheme and a secondary data collecting scheme, the primary data collection scheme being different from the secondary data collection scheme, in accordance with an operating state of the medical appliance,
in accordance with selecting the primary data collection scheme; collecting data from a first terminal and a second terminal according to the primary data collection scheme, the first terminal forming an electrical connection with a first electrode of the medical appliance and the second terminal forming an electrical connection with a second electrode of the medical appliance; and
in accordance with selecting the secondary data collection scheme; collecting data from the first terminal and the second terminal according to the secondary data collection scheme.
13. The method of claim 12 , wherein a sampling rate of the primary data collection scheme is different from a sampling of the secondary data collection scheme.
14. The method of claim 1 , the method comprising selecting the data collection scheme in accordance with an operating state of the medical appliance.
