Incontinence detection apparatus

An incontinence monitoring system comprising:

• a moisture sensor pad, said moisture sensor pad comprising;
• a condition-responsive sensor to produce sensor data relating to whether moisture is present on the pad;
• and
• an RFID tag comprising an antenna, the RFID tag being programmable, the RFID tag receiving the sensor data and comparing the sensor data to at least one preselected threshold level;
• a controller configured to program the RFID tag based on a controller input;
• said controller and said RFID tag comprising components to provide power to communicate across a preselected distance;
• and
• a transceiver, said transceiver being coupled to said controller and wherein said controller is programmed to power said transceiver to transmit intermittently, whereby power density from said transceiver is maintained below a preselected limit.
