Robot vs. nurse: can automation improve urine monitoring?
NCT ID NCT07384325
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether an automated device called FlowSure can measure urine output more accurately than the usual manual method in hospital patients with a urinary catheter. 75 adults took part, and their urine was monitored over 8- and 24-hour periods. The goal was to see if automation improves accuracy and completeness of records, which could lead to better patient care.
