Urisens is a technology aimed at elderly care. It is designed to help caregivers monitor the urinary output of elderly individuals who require assistance with daily living activities. It uses advanced technology to detect and alert caregivers when a change of a diaper is needed and measures important clinical parameters.

In addition to incontinence management, Urisens can help in preventive care. Early detection of urinary tract infections (UTIs) and other medical conditions can be critical in preventing complications and ensuring timely treatment. Urisens technology can help detect changes in urinary patterns, which may be an indicator of a UTI or other medical condition, allowing caregivers to take prompt action.
