AN APPARATUS AND A METHOD FOR UROLOGICAL MEASUREMENTS

摘要

The invention relates to an apparatus and a method for urological measurements. The apparatus is based on a central control unit which wirelessly controls one or more measuring apparatuses, from which urinary tract relevant data are collected. The central control unit synchronizes the measurements and can pool data collections running in parallel, such that e.g. bladder volume and bladder pressure may be recorded at the same time and data be compared in real time. Since all units communicate wirelessly, the patient's freedom of movement is unrestricted, which allows measurement and data collection in environments where the patient moves freely about. The wireless communication used is carried out according to the Bluetooth standard in a preferred embodiment. The method of the invention comprises control of one or more urological measuring processes and appliances with a central control unit which wirelessly communicates with the measuring equipment used.
