Projectdetails

Introduction

900 million patients globally suffer from urinary dysfunction. Setting the right diagnosis and deciding upon the right treatment (medication, assistive devices, rehabilitation, and/or surgery) can sometimes be very challenging.

Current Limitations

Today's technology provides a limited 15-minute snapshot based on the artificial filling of the bladder. There is a clear need for a technology that can provide high resolution, accurate, and realistic bladder pressure data over time based on natural filling.

PRESSURO Technology

PRESSURO is a revolutionary micro and nanotechnology pressure sensor system based on more than 10 years of research at SINTEF.

Key Features

  • The sensor will be inserted directly into the bladder.
  • It will enable continuous measurement based on natural physiology for up to 30 days.

Impact

This solution will provide a completely new understanding of bladder function and enable better diagnosis and treatment for millions of patients.
