ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for incontinence detection and notification comprises a notification component, for providing notice that an incontinent event has occurred, and a sensor. The sensor includes a sensing pad for collecting and retaining fluid resulting from the incontinent event, and a circuit housed within the sensing pad. The circuit has a pair of stainless steel electrodes, which are in electronic communication with the notification component. A closed circuit is created between the electrodes by the fluid resulting from the incontinent event, causing an electronic signal to be communicated to the notification component. The circuit may also include a plurality of connectors placed in electronic communication with the notification component to diagnose a disconnected or poorly connected circuit.
