Nephrolink

by Siona Dutta

Project Description

NephroLink is an at-home testing kit for dialysis patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) to simplify the Albumin-to-Creatinine Ratio (ACR) testing process. The product is designed to enhance user interaction, making it intuitive and less burdensome, thereby improving patient compliance and overall experience. The goal is to provide a convenient, reliable, and user-friendly solution that supports regular monitoring of kidney function, aligning with the needs of CKD patients who require frequent assessments.

Ritual of use : After urine sample has been placed over the test pad, the ACR Test is then covered with medical grade capsule which creates a protection around the strip and ensures no contamination and is loaded at the back of NephroLink over the sensor.
