This is Streamcheck
The Streamcheck medical device includes our patent-pending, easy-to-use measuring device. Valuable information is collected from the urine on the home-placed toilet - including the flow of urine as well as the volume and duration of emptying.
An integrated test strip also analyses biochemical data that provide information about ten biomarkers, for example the sugar and protein content of the urine, and thus indicate possible bladder or kidney diseases.
The collected data is finally evaluated and stored in the form of a trend analysis. This means that even minor changes in the urine can be noticed at an early stage.
In the case of abnormalities, concrete instructions for further action are communicated to the user. In addition, a report can be requested for the first time after the onboarding process. Afterwards it is possible to download the report every three
months for further medical use.

Guideline-compliant urological early detection
Late-recognised widespread disease: 40% of all men over 50 have benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
Due to stigma and lack of awareness, screening appointments are hardly attended.
Conventional methods only examine the urine values selectively and are not representative.
A large proportion of men over the age of 50 are affected by benign prostate enlargement. In the worst case, this can lead to irreparable damage to the health of the bladder and kidneys - although many of these limitations could be avoided.
A detailed trend analysis of the urine by means of Streamcheck makes it possible to detect minimal deviations in the health values and thus the first signals of urological diseases at an early stage.
Urological prophylaxis can therefore be carried out effectively and in accordance with guidelines. The risk of serious surgical interventions as well as irreparable long-term consequences such as incontinence and loss of potency can be significantly reduced - and the user's quality of life can be maintained in the long term.

A weak, frequently interrupted urine stream and the feeling of not having emptied the bladder properly are signs of benign prostate enlargement.

Frequently asked questions
Conventional strip tests do not serve as a precautionary measure because they are only used when symptoms are already present. Test strips only provide information on whether biochemical values are elevated. A urine flow measurement, which provides further important information, is missing. Users must then carry out the assessment of the self-test themselves - without receiving a recommendation on what to do.
Uroflowmetry can technically only be carried out by a doctor. However, medical experts agree that the "one-time effect" is only of limited significance. By contrast, urine flow measurement during a natural urine flow (at home) records the data from various measurements: In this way, slow changes in urine flow become visible - the first signs of a bladder emptying disorder or weakening of the urinary stream do not go unnoticed.
After switching on the device with the button on the shaft, the ring lights up red twice. Now the device must be connected to the app and a urine strip inserted. When the ring changes colour from red to green, the connection is active and the device is ready for use.
Now you can urinate through the ring in your personal comfortable situation while sitting or standing and the data is automatically saved on the mobile phone. The device can be rinsed under running water, the test strip can be disposed of with the household waste and Streamcheck is ready for the next use.

Up to 6 users can be stored in the app. It can be adjusted to suit different users.
Health data belongs to the sensitive data with an increased need for protection. The protection of this data from access by third parties therefore has an enormously high priority at Streamcheck - only you have access to your personal data at any time. The anonymous evaluation of your health data is carried out by a doctor with a corresponding assessment of the results. Moreover, the anonymous evaluation of the data by a doctor only takes place if you actively agree to the data evaluation in the app.
Streamcheck does not replace the screening examination for prostate cancer. However, numerous diseases such as bladder emptying disorders, prostate enlargement with urine outflow obstruction, diseases of the kidney (protein in the urine, etc.) or diseases of the bladder up to bladder cancer (blood in the urine, etc.) could possibly be detected at an early stage.
Women in particular can take a test at an early stage in case of urination problems (pain, frequent urge to urinate, etc.). If there is an indication of an incipient urinary tract infection, countermeasures can be taken at an early stage through a targeted approach. Antibiotics (intolerance! resistance!) are often avoided. The response of the therapy is documented by self-monitoring.
