We all have to take urine tests to monitor our health. Periodically take a urinalysis test, occasionally a culture test and a 24-hour urine collection test for more complexed health condition. Sometimes, although we understand the importance, we are reluctant to take the tests. We don’t like urinating into small cups, test tubes or containers, pause whilst urinating, pour (and spill) urine, smell the 24-hour collected urine, memorize the urine volume and are quite embarrassed when carrying a cup or a container filled with urine..

Some of the outwearing duties of medical staff in Points-of-Care including hospital departments is related to urine handling. Medical staff has to obtain the patients urine samples out of cups and containers whilst being exposed to smells and sometimes urine spilling. Dip urine sticks in urine, manually retrieve the urine parameters and diagnostic data and record them in the patients’ Electronic Health Records (EHR). This tedious, error prone and time-consuming process is also effecting the medical staff work efficiency.

Diseases’ screening and monitoring is vital, especially of life-threatening conditions. Urine tests are the most effective, non-invasive, and affordable way to do so. Urine diagnosis data can be used for population management alerting systems and be analyzed by AI technologies to derive health predictions. However, urine sample and data collection, especially the 24-hour urine, are very challenging to both patients and medical staff. The insufficient and incomplete data could lead to late diagnosis and inadequate disease monitoring.
