Problem
Monitoring digestive health often requires invasive procedures or infrequent lab tests, making it difficult to track bowel habits and identify abnormalities early. Traditional methods lack the ability to collect frequent, real-time data on key digestive health indicators in a non-invasive manner. This can lead to delayed diagnosis and management of digestive issues such as constipation and other gastrointestinal disorders.
Solution
Coprata provides a smart toilet and smart toilet seat that automatically collects fecal specimens and measures key digestive health indicators, providing users with real-time feedback on their bowel habits. The toilet uses a personalized button to identify the user and initiate data collection. Post-flush, the system seamlessly collects samples for biochemical analysis and provides data on straining. Users can access their bowel habit data and trends to make informed lifestyle changes and decisions about therapeutic management, while also sharing data with their care team.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes individuals suffering from chronic constipation and other gastrointestinal conditions, as well as healthcare providers seeking remote monitoring solutions for their patients' digestive health.
