  • Patent number: 12642684
    Abstract: An ostomy leakage detection system (10) includes a sensing accessory (12) and a monitor device (14). The sensing accessory includes sensors configured to detect ostomy effluent leakage under a skin barrier (20) of an ostomy pouch system (18). The monitor device is configured to communicate with the sensing accessory to receive ostomy effluent leakage data. The monitor device is also configured to engage with the sensing accessory and configured to be attached to the ostomy pouch system or to user's body via the sensing accessory.

  • Publication number: 20260041578
    Abstract: An ostomy leakage detection system includes a wearable subsystem, a sensing accessory, a connector region, and at least one gasket. The wearable subsystem may include conductive members. The sensing accessory may be configured to detect moisture under a barrier. The connector region may extend from the sensing accessory and may be configured to connect the wearable subsystem to the sensing accessory. The least one gasket may be configured to provide a water-resistant connection at the connector region.

  • Publication number: 20250152402
    Abstract: A charging dock for charging a wearable device for an ostomy leakage detection system. The charging dock may include a housing, a slide-in mechanism, a contact pin, and a ramp. The housing may include a first and second wall. The slide-in mechanism may be defined by the first and second wall and configured to receive a wearable device. The first wall may include a first opening for accessing the wearable device. The first wall may include at least one peripheral edge that may be configured to extend over the wearable device and prevent the wearable device from opening while docked. The contact pin may be located within the slide-in mechanism and may be configured to charge the wearable device. The ramp may be located within the slide-in mechanism and configured to charge to couple with the wearable device to prevent rotation of the wearable device while docked.

  • Publication number: 20250000682
    Abstract: An ostomy device includes a proximal side configured for attachment to a user, a distal side opposite to the proximal side, and a leakage detection sensor having electrically conductive circuitry supported on a support layer. The leakage detection sensor is configured to detect ostomy effluent by detecting a change in resistance in the electrically conductive circuitry. The ostomy device may be an ostomy appliance or an ostomy accessory.

  • Patent number: 4062299
    Abstract: A flat table is releasably mounted on a central depending leg at such an angle that the table is horizontal when the leg is placed in a slanted fishing rod socket on a boat, such sockets being normally provided for holding unattended fishing rods while trolling. A notch in the lower end of the leg engages a cross pin in the socket to prevent rotation of the leg in the socket and thus locks the table in horizontal position.
