An analytical toilet comprising a bowl for receiving excreta from a user; a flush mechanism for cleaning the bowl after use; at least one analytical test device wherein a sample of excreta is analyzed; a manifold comprising conduits and valves for distributing one or more fluids to and from the at least one receptacle; and a digital control device controlling the valves to distribute the sample to the analytical test device for analysis; and distribute fluid to remove the sample from the analytical test device after analysis and to clean the analytical test device is disclosed.

An analytical toilet comprising a bowl adapted to receive excreta; one or more conduits for transporting a sample from the bowl; one or more fluid sources in fluid connection with the one or more conduits; and one or more microfluidic chips, comprising at least one fluid inlet; at least one fluid outlet; and a sensor configured to detect at least one property of an excreta sample is disclosed.

An analytical toilet comprising a bowl for receiving excreta from a user, a urine collection chamber in fluid communication with the bowl, a sensor for detecting properties of the urine after at least partial settling of the urine, a valve adapted to release the captured urine from the urine collection chamber, and a source of flush water to clean the urine collection chamber.

An analytical toilet comprising a bowl for receiving excreta from a user; a lid adapted to cover the bowl; and a first health and wellness sensor in the lid for measuring a characteristic of the user's excreta is disclosed.

A device for draining bodily fluids is described herein which generally may comprise an elongate body defining one or more lumens configured to receive a bodily fluid from a cavity, e.g., bladder, of a patient body. The one or more lumens are in fluid communication with a reservoir which may receive the bodily fluid. A pumping mechanism may be used to urge the bodily fluid through the one or more lumens, where the pumping mechanism is configured to maintain an open space within the one or more lumens such that outflow of the bodily fluid through the one or more lumens remains unobstructed such that a negative pressure buildup in the cavity is inhibited. The device may also include a vent or valve mechanism in communication with the elongate body to allow air to enter or exit the one or more lumens.

Systems and methods of evaluating a patient comprise the steps of obtaining temporal data of the patient after an event, monitoring a plurality of patient parameters, compiling patient data based on the temporal data and patient parameters, determining a state or change in state of the patient based on the compiled patient data, and alerting medical staff of the state or change in state.

A device for collecting urine discharged from a body of a user includes a fluid collection assembly having at least one layer for drawing urine discharged from the body into an interior cavity, an external covering that covers a portion of the at least one layer, and at least one fenestration for receiving urine, wherein the fenestration is a portion of the fluid collection assembly that is uncovered by the external covering. The device further includes a cap enclosing a first end of the assembly, a tube having a first end in fluid communication with the cap, and a shape retaining element configured to conform the assembly to a curved configuration and maintain the curved configuration until the configuration is adjusted. The assembly is configured to be disposed against the body of the user, with the at least one fenestration in operative relation with a urethral opening of the user.

Embodiments herein include systems and methods for detecting, predicting and/or assessing acute kidney injury. In an embodiment, a monitoring system to detect acute kidney injury is included. The monitoring system can include a sensor circuit configured to collect renal data including at least one of systemic renal data, direct renal data, urinary tract data, and renal-relevant extracorporeal data. The monitoring system can also include a memory circuit to store collected renal data, an evaluation circuit to assess renal status, and a telemetry circuit. The evaluation circuit can determine whether acute kidney injury has occurred or is likely to occur by comparing the renal data to at least one of threshold values, personal historical values, patient population values and patterns indicative of acute kidney injury. The evaluation circuit can initiate a warning notification if acute kidney injury has occurred or is likely to occur. Other embodiments are also included herein.

Embodiments disclosed herein are directed to apparatus and methods for automatic fluid flow system connectors. The system generally includes a load cell interface coupled to a console and a ring connector coupled to a fluid collection system. The ring connector can be releasably engaged with the load cell using an engagement structure such as a latch, locking arm, or spring clip mechanism. The ring connector and load cell can include electrical contacts configured to engage along an axis that extends perpendicular to a surface that the electrical contacts are disposed on. Advantageously, reduced wear on the electrical contacts should extend the usable life of the system.
