Device study to automatically track stool and urine
This study tests a new device meant to automatically record stool and urine output. You may be asked to use specific Duke building bathrooms so the research team can see how well the tracking works.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You can safely use the private bathroom in the CIEMAS building (B508) or room 4002 on the 4th floor of MSRB3
- You are a Duke University student or employee (you need card access to use the MSRB3 bathroom)
- You spend most of your time in these buildings (so you can use the toilet regularly for the study)
- If enrollment is slow, you may be able to join using people from nearby buildings

This study tests a new device that automatically tracks urine and stool output for patients in the hospital after a stem cell transplant or for heart failure. The device could replace manual tracking and make it easier for your care team to monitor your fluid balance.
This study tracks bowel movements in healthy people to learn more about normal gut function. It involves attending an in-person session at a university in Leeds or Sheffield.
This trial builds a “database” to better understand why some people have stool (faecal) leakage versus double incontinence (urine plus stool). It asks about symptoms and performs a rectal pressure test to see which factors are linked to different types of leakage.
This trial tests a smart wearable device that monitors how you urinate. It is for people with an enlarged prostate (benign prostatic hyperplasia, or BPH) who need a urodynamic test to understand their symptoms before deciding on treatment. The device may help doctors get better information without a catheter.
This study tests a new device called Peristeen Light, which is a low-volume system for cleaning the bowels. It may help people with constipation or stool leakage who need this kind of treatment every other day.
This trial tests a non-invasive biofeedback technique to help people regain control of bowel movements. It may be an option for those with frequent stool leakage or difficult constipation, but participants must not have certain other digestive or neurological conditions.
