Creation of an E-toileting Log Through Classification of the Physical Properties of Stool and Urine Using TrueLoo™

Urinary Tract Infections Clinical Trial

Official title: TrueLoo™: Determining the Feasibility of an Electronic Bowel Movement and Urinary Event Log Via In Situ Categorization of Physical Properties of Stool and Urine

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility of TrueLoo™, an Internet-connected smart toilet seat, in accurately monitoring and logging bowel movements and urinations of residents in senior living facilities across Northern California.

Clinical Trial Description

The logging and monitoring of bowel movements and urinary events is an important aspect of preventative care for residents in senior living facilities, providing early warning signs for conditions that may otherwise cause complications if dealt with reactively. However, this information is sporadically collected - if at all - and subjectively interpreted by caregivers, leading to inconsistencies and unreliable data. Toi Labs, Inc. has created TrueLoo™, an Internet-connected toilet seat, as a solution to these issues. TrueLoo™ acquires time-lapse images of a bowel movement or urinary event automatically and under controlled conditions. Residents enrolled in the current study will have a TrueLoo™ installed in their private bathroom, through which all bowel movements and urinary events will be tracked, anonymously, privately, and securely. As a result, an electronic bowel movement and urinary event log for each enrolled resident will be generated. Given sufficient data, the TrueLoo™ system will complete such electronic logs automatically, identify points in time where particular enrolled residents may have experienced anomalous toileting patterns, and determine the relevance of such events through targeted health history and urine sampling. ;
