Monitoring of continuous UO data can be accomplished on the bedside system display screen. In addition, the Sensica UO System for ICU can be configured to automatically transmit UO data via the Sensica™ UO Relay Software to a facility’s HL7 server, where the data is subsequently verified and entered into the patient’s electronic health record (EHR) by the appropriate medical personnel.
Sensica™ UO System for ICU Instructions for Use, Model No. SCCS-1001, ver. 1001 The Sensica UO System for ICU is designed to sit on the floor at the patient’s bedside. Any standard indwelling catheter (“Foley”), drainage tubing, and collection bag may be used with the system.
Sensica™ UO Ring, which is a part of the Sensica™ UO Patient Ring Kit. Each time the system is used with a new patient, a new Sensica UO Ring must be connected to the Sensica UO Stand. The system software is designed to calibrate each time a new ring is attached to ensure accurate calculations of urine output volume.
The Sensica UO ring will provide continuous operation for 336 hours (14 days) when connected to the Sensica UO System for ICU. If the patient requires longer monitoring than 14 days, a new ring can be connected to the stand without interrupting data collection or patient history.
1.2 Sensica™ UO Software/ICU: User Interface 1.2.1 Touch Screen Display The monitor display is touch screen operated. Figure 9 shows the Sensica UO Display for ICU in normal operating conditions with “day” mode selected. The large number is a “live” amount, updating continuously as urine collects in the bag.
The monitor display shows how long the indwelling catheter has been in place, since the bag collection system was first connected to the Sensica UO stand (in Days and Hours). This information can be used to assist in following facility CAUTI guidelines regarding awareness of indwelling catheter placement time.
AKI. (See Table 2.) This formula assesses urine output using the formula, ml/kg/hr. The data set is available on the Sensica UO data screens, once the patient’s weight has been entered into the system.

SE AND ARGET OPULATION The Sensica UO System for ICU is an automated urine meter system for continuous monitoring of urine output (UO). Target Population: The Sensica™ UO System for ICU, Model No. SCCS-1001, is intended for bedside monitoring of urine output by any patient with an indwelling, urological catheter, drainage tubing and collection bag, typically in critical care settings or where close monitoring of urine output is desired.
Portable and mobile RF communications equipment can affect MEDICAL CAUTION ELECTICAL EQUIPMENT. The Sensica UO System for ICU should not be used adjacent to or stacked with other equipment. If adjacent or stacked use is necessary, the Sensica UO CAUTION System for ICU should be observed to verify normal operation in the configuration in which it will be used.
