Description

Contraception calculator

Contraception with the @ille is accompanied by side effects and interferes with the hormonal balance of women. Therefore one has the method according to Ogino-Knaus that has to be learned about and manual data acquisition and data evaluation This is why it is proposed according to the invention: Contraception with dem O G I N O - K N A U S - R E C H N E R.

The machine consists of a digital clock (possibly with date), charging and battery part with automatic changeover temperature sensor acoustic signal transmitter input keys Display buttons Security buttons against unauthorized use of the computer at the same time controls the following areas: clock, temperature measurement, data acquisition, data evaluation, Battery control, displays, small lamps, possibly magnetic cassette for data storage (Can be evaluated in an ore computer at the gynecologist) The machine should perform the following tasks: a) clock with alarm clock, possibly with date b) clinical thermometer c) Contraception calculation using 3 methods at the same time d) Suggest a doctor's visit I) according to the method based on the cycle length according to which a woman in the interval ( min.Z1. - 18, max Zl.-10) is fertile, II) according to the temperature measurement method (early. Tspr.-6, Tspr. + 3) III) "of the temperature measurement method, based on the last measurement (1, Tspr. +3).

The security of the information is almost as high as for method III) as with the pill = ovulation inhibitor * The security is shown in% on the clock display output as well as other data after pressing the corresponding display key 1/2 min long. Methods I) and II) are estimates based on the spread of the Data, the computer chooses the method for which it has the best and most secure data Results available 0 If the data is also recorded on a cassette, the gynecologist can quickly calculate his or her own doctor's work with the help of the cassette get an overview of the problems. For the husband there is no problem with psychology Perfect orientation is also possible, as the lights show the safe time0 Morning temperature measurement The alarm clock signals the time to get up and take measurements.

The sensor is standardized from the holder, the alarm clock sets aich off, the device is switched from the mains to the battery because of the voltage security. The measurement process begins 0 When you wake up the second time, the end of the measurement is displayed, The sensor is put back in the holder and data processing begins, after the security buttons and temperature entry buttons u under one third checksums were pressed 0 Further input keys can be immediately or can also be operated during the day, the probe is on the device for cleaning pluggable attached to a waterproof cable. The device runs on a racing transformer When traveling, the device runs on battery; the number displays are switched off, possibly also power supply via solar cells (developing countries). Will be used during a If an entry is still made in the data processing, it will be cached, daun used in a second run, or no sums are heard, i.e. more data enter 0 The evaluation algorithms must contain the following: A) Indication of whether a Going to the doctor is necessary, B) 1, whether it is a safe day, C) choose the correct method I), II) or III), D) and currency calculate, E) take into account missing values and possibly interpolate + l and the following Calculate values and store them in a memory: temperature, date and all others Data from the input keys Days since the last bleeding Length of the maximum cycle of the min0 cycle, possibly a non-consideration of dates that are far back in the past double storage early. Temperature rise late. "Length of the last bleeding Ta @ calculate the increase in temperature Display buttons switch for 1 @in. the clock display from 1.) measured temperature: this also turns the device into a simple clinical thermometer. When pressed, the measured value is displayed, when pressed the second time, within the ITin-te then the temperature of the day before and so on @all temperature entries of the last days. After 8 @in. possibly let the alarm buzz 2.) Days since the last bleeding (Day of the period) x 3.) max. Period: days x 4.) min. ":" X 50) earliest temperature rise: Period day x 6.) Latest ":" x 7.) Days until the change: from safe to unsafe or x accordingly different 8.) length of the bleeding: when pressing the last B10 for the first time, the second of the penultimate, etc. up to 30 bleeding 9;) Security in%: information the% security of the computer unsave the light indications. If beforehand 1. min Display key was pressed whose statement.

(x means input option together with the value input key within 1 in, after pressing it, each press of the x button increases the value on the clock Display from 0 to 1. Nazh 1 minute after the last press, the Ullr is switched on again and the last displayed value is saved) (possibly in combination with the clock setting) (Possibly contact for additional timer for radio) Light 1.) green: safe time, how safe see above

2o) red: unsafe time, see above 3,) blue: consult a doctor Lights up red and green at the same time, no announcement is possible.

4o) red: Mains and battery control: If the power fails, it is automatic the battery is charged and the lo on and the clock display switched off; with battery operation, whether 2/3 empty, then red, only when pressing the 2 safety buttons at the same time working input keys 1 1 '(S means buzzer sounds or light while pressing down) lo) S delete the last entry: the Enter key pressed afterwards deletes the corresponding function 2.) S Temperature entry: the one measured by the sensor and analog-to-digital converter displayed temperature is stored in a cell, which was selected via the built-in clock and the computer.

30) 5 bleeding agreement: a bit is selected in the as above Cell set 4o) 5 mucus: dto.

5.) S sickness or medication: dto 6.) S awake at night: dto 7o) p Entering values: after pressing the key, the clock display is switched off for 1 minute and the corresponding display keys can be used to enter the values that are sequentially counted on the clock display for visual control, To the Safety een playing children, the two safety buttons have been built in, but which can be switched off by changing the device. You are on the front and back of the device. The toggle is located in the In the form of a grosch switch on the bottom of the device, a second changeover switch switches from mains to battery operation. The clock display is switched off and can be used for 1 min. long an extra key to be switched on (security key) Further inputs can be important for the doctor: 8o) S traffic 9.) Nausea, vomiting / S lO.) S heavy bleeding 11.) S outflow memory (possibly on cassettes) next to the program memory and the arithmetic registers must have the following information: 1. 20 = 64 = 39+ 25 memory cells for entering the daily temperature characteristics in 5 or 6 bits from 36 - 39.2 ° C min.

= no entry bleeding: 1 bit mucus: 1 disease: 1 "at night w0: 1 "as a basement store organizes 39 days for normal bleeding, the others 25 for recognizing irregular intermenstrual bleeding or excessively long bleeding 20 Register: 6 bits for specifying the day of the period. It will continue at 8 p.m. since bleeding from then on is counted to the next day.

34 registers: 4 bits for displaying the number of periods up to 16 pieces. Then conversion as described below! 4. Register: 3 times 4 bits for the lengths of the last 3 bleeds 5. Max. period register: 2 times 4 bits. The values will obtained by adding to the Mino PRo.

So only distance saved! 6. Min. PR.s 2 times 5 bits 7. F Earliest temperature rise: 2 times 4 bits: because the f0 temperature rise not expected before the 8th day, values obtained by adding 81 8. Latest T0: 2 ma 4 bits: Nerte obtained by adding FrühOTO: so only the distance is saved.

When register 3 is full, registers 4,5,6,7 are relocated according to the following calculation: The values of the last 8 (16) periods optimized, these are transferred to ALT and then T \ U deleted0 In this way, values that are too old and refer to OLD and NEW are not used in the calculation relates; So usually 52 values are considered 0 = 2.8 years or 16 values 104 J, if it has just been transferred,
