The device utilizes a sensor-equipped fabric, eliminating the need for traditional collection cups and laboratory analysis. This approach significantly reduces contamination risks and the frequency of retesting, thereby accelerating diagnosis and improving patient outcomes. By bringing advanced diagnostics to the point of care, URIna empowers individuals with timely and accurate health information.
Target Audience
URIna targets women seeking convenient and accurate at-home diagnostic solutions for potential UTIs, as well as healthcare providers and payers aiming to reduce retesting rates and improve diagnostic efficiency.
