Why Minuteful Kidney
Increased albuminuria in at-risk populations multiplies the risk for adverse outcomes and cardiovascular events. CKD often shows no symptoms in its early stages.
When detected early and managed, progression to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and incidence of cardiovascular events can be decreased.
- Quick, easy and fully-funded implementation: once onboarded, Healthy.io will manage the entire testing process to easily get patients back into appropriate care.
- Easing the workload: Address backlogs in chronic disease management without affecting your workload.
- Quality care: Test results are securely shared with primary care providers for follow-up.
Better for your patients, better for you
Driving patients back to care
The test offers patients instant results, with clear explanations and guidance on next steps to help providers identify, diagnose and provide proper care.
Reducing health inequities
Increase access to care for previously untested patients. Give them the freedom to test when it's most convenient for them, from the comfort of their home.
Mitigating costly complications
Early detection of albuminuria can lead to significant reduction in the total cost of care. Identifying undetected kidney disease helps avert complications such as heart attacks, strokes, and dialysis.
Increase access to lab-grade testing
The Minuteful Kidney test app and kit allow people to test their kidney health at home and receive immediate clinical results directly through their smartphone. Through colorimetric analysis, computer vision, and AI we use the smartphone camera to deliver a FDA cleared clinical-grade medical test. The app walks the user through a simple test, making it as easy as snapping a photo.
