Healthcare as a service in most developed countries has advanced more than just electronic medical records (EMR), automated hospital experience, hospital information systems, and the like of it. Healthcare services have attained the height of remote surgery, computer-aided surgery, and remote patient monitoring and care due to the advancements in information and communication technology coupled with the advancement in artificial intelligence (AI) ability on the Internet of things. The use of smart gadgets in the toilet capable of collecting data relevant to healthcare makes the gadget a personal health monitoring device, which is a medical care supplement to traditional health monitoring. This provides an effective, non-invasive, nondestructive, low-cost, accuracy, and timesaving method of conducting health monitoring on the user in real time.
Turbidity, the measurement for impurity and the opposite phenomenon of clarity, is described as the reduced transparency of a liquid caused by the existence of undissolved matter in the form of suspended particles. The permissible volume of light through the liquid, or light that is not dispersed or absorbed but emitted through the liquid and propagated toward the observer, provides a foundation for the analysis of various subject matters, such as liquid mass concentration and impurity identification. The turbidity of urine is increased by the presence of cellular debris, cast, and, in some cases, crystal and other debris in the urine. Blood (both red and white blood cells), hemoglobin, cholesterol, albumin, leukocyte esterase, nitrites, ketones, bilirubin, and urobilinogen are all substances that are not expected to be found in urine, the presence of which can increase urine turbidity. Owing to the principle of turbidimetry, it is not the detection of turbidity that is the cause of the turbid state of urine but the presence of suspended particles and a rough estimate of the number of suspended particles in urine. This research exposes the different methods of obtaining the turbidity of a liquid sample and the working principles of turbidimetry and nephelometry.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
