Abstract: A system and urine sensing devices for and method of monitoring kidney function is disclosed, wherein the system and method can be used for the early detection of acute kidney injury (AKI). Namely, a kidney function monitoring system provides a portable urine monitor system that can provide real-time and continuous feedback about urine output and/or level of at least one urinary component (e.g., sodium). The kidney function monitoring system further comprises at least one urine sensing device, wherein the urine sensing device comprises a digital weight scale, a stand onto which a urine collection vessel can be positioned, and an interface between the digital weight scale and the stand that transfers the force of the stand and contents of the urine collection vessel to the digital weight scale. Further, the portable monitoring device comprises an adaptive and modular self-learning algorithm for the real-time assessment of AKI risk.

Abstract: The present invention relates to bodysuits for use as personal protective equipment comprising a torso portion comprising a front side; a back side including a sealable port through which a wearer can enter and exit the bodysuit when donning or doffing the bodysuit, respectively; a waist region; a neck opening; a pair of upper limb openings; and a pair of lower limb openings; two arm portions each extending from one of the upper limb opening; and two leg portions each extending from one of the lower limb opening and methods for the removal of such body suits.
