Disclosed is a method for evaluating attachment of a sensor patch to a base plate for an ostomy appliance, wherein the base plate comprises: at least a first layer of an adhesive material adapted for attachment of the base plate to the skin surface of a user; a backing layer comprising a film material and having a distal surface and a proximal surface; and a centre portion surrounding a stoma-receiving opening extending through the base plate, the sensor patch being adapted for attachment to the first layer of the base plate, and wherein the sensor patch comprises: a sensor assembly comprising a plurality of electrodes including a first electrode and a second electrode for forming a first sensor, the method comprising: measuring one or more characteristic quantities; and determining whether the one or more characteristic quantities satisfies one or more attachment criteria.
Method for evaluating attachment of a sensor patch to a base plate for an ostomy appliance, wherein the base plate comprises:
Method according to any of the preceding claims, wherein the one or more characteristic quantities includes a second characteristic quantity being indicative of electrical resistance between the first electrode and the second electrode.
Method according to any of the preceding claims comprising in accordance with the one or more characteristic quantities not satisfying the one or more attachment criteria, issuing a failure signal indicative of the sensor patch not being sufficiently attached.
Method according to any of the preceding claims comprising in accordance with the one or more characteristic quantities satisfying the one or more attachment criteria, issuing a success signal indicative of the sensor patch being sufficiently attached.
Method according to any of the preceding claims, wherein measuring the one or more characteristic quantities and determining whether the one or more characteristic quantities satisfies the one or more attachment criteria is performed prior to attachment of the base plate to the skin of the user.
Method according to any of the preceding claims, wherein the sensor patch comprises a monitor interface configured for connecting the sensor assembly to a monitor device, and wherein the method comprises connecting the monitor device to the sensor assembly prior to measuring the one or more characteristic quantities.
Method according to any of the preceding claims, wherein the sensor patch comprises an adhesive sensor layer arranged on a proximal side of the sensor assembly.
Method according to any of the preceding claims, wherein the sensor patch comprises a shielding layer of an electrically conductive material, the shielding layer being arranged on a distal side of the sensor assembly.
