New wearable could let men with BPH track bladder health at home
NCT ID NCT07357012
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new, non-invasive wearable device that uses electrical impedance tomography to monitor bladder function in 40 men with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Participants will wear the device while undergoing standard urine flow tests to see if the new method matches the clinic-based test. If successful, this could allow for convenient, at-home bladder monitoring.
