Healthy.io Minuteful Kidney
A home test using a smartphone camera and image recognition to make urine testing for chronic kidney disease more accessible.
About
With Minuteful Kidney, patients perform an albumine-creatinine ratio test at home. The app guides them through the test and uses the camera, a calibration card, and image recognition to read the color reactions. Results are shared with the care provider. NICE described positive NHS practice experience regarding reach and participation, but also pointed to limitations in the published evidence on diagnostic accuracy.
AI factor
Image recognition makes the color measurement less dependent on what someone sees with their own eyes, turning a home test into standardized data for the care provider.
