Abstract:
Disclosed are a method, device and system for determining a flow rate of an excretion stream within an excretion collection assembly. According to some embodiments of the present invention, one of the constituent elements of the collection assembly includes a sensing module which includes an electrical and/or electromechanical component.

Claim (Index 13):
A method for estimating a rate of urine produced by kidneys and flowing into a bladder of a subject based on measurement of an excretion stream within an excretion collection assembly including a catheter, said method comprising:\n receiving urine through a urinary catheter, of the excretion collection assembly inserted into the bladder such that urine entering the bladder exits through said catheter and flows through at least part of the excretion collection assembly; and measuring urine flow through a measuring device at least a portion of which is integral with a constituent element of the excretion collection assembly, wherein said measuring comprises: sensing a rate of urine flow out of the bladder to produce a flow indicative signal and estimating a present urine flow into the bladder based on the flow indicative signal.
