Problem
Traditional uroflowmetry requires patients to visit a clinic, which can be inconvenient and may not accurately reflect their typical urinary habits. This reliance on single-point-in-time measurements can lead to incomplete or inaccurate assessments of urinary health. Furthermore, the need for specialized equipment and trained personnel limits the accessibility and frequency of uroflowmetry testing.
Solution
Emano Flow offers a software-based solution for remote uroflowmetry, enabling patients to monitor their urinary health from the convenience of their homes. The patient records the sound of urination using a smartphone app, and patented machine-learning algorithms analyze the audio to determine flow rate and volume. This technology provides continuous monitoring, capturing a more comprehensive picture of a patient's urinary patterns compared to traditional in-clinic methods. The Emano Flow system includes a provider portal and mobile app, allowing physicians to remotely access and review patient data for informed treatment decisions.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes urologists and other healthcare providers who need comprehensive and reliable data for assessing and managing patients with urinary conditions, as well as patients seeking a convenient and private way to monitor their urinary health.
