A new device set to enter the US market later this year will help caregivers and those who may not know that their bladder is full that it is time to take a trip to the bathroom. "The device goes on your lower abdomen and uses ultrasonic sensors to monitor the change in bladder size. The data collected is then sent to a server where it is analyzed using a patented algorithm. The notification is then sent to a smartphone or tablet used by the patient, nurse or caregivers, to inform when it is necessary to go to the bathroom." You can read more about it at the link below.
