Initial response from the Urology Team is that the application is very user friendly… My providers seem very excited about the app, its benefits, and capabilities
I love technology that makes sense. If it makes life easier for us, then it is likely to be used. Having to do a Uroflow test in the urology office has always been a bit involved. It is tough for all parties involved: for the staff that have to prepare & clean the equipment, for the physicians interpreting & reading the findings, and most importantly for the patients that have to hold onto a full bladder and perform the best urine flow they can in a public setting. This is far from ideal. Well, say hello to the MenHealth app. This is the future of home based Uroflow assessment. Our patients love this new technology: it is a lot easier and more discreet to use.
Voiding diary and uroflowmetry are essential tools for the diagnosis and management of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). MenHealth has created a proprietary hands free app-based technology that can accurately measure and automatically and digitally record urinary flow rate, voided volume, and time of urination, the same information that otherwise requires a trip to the doctor's office.
