Evaluation of a real-life experience with a digital fluid balance monitoring technology.

Background: Innovations in healthcare technologies have the potential to address challenges, including the monitoring of fluid balance.

Objective: This study aims to evaluate the functionality and accuracy of a digital technology compared to standard manual documentation in a real-life setting.

Methods: The digital technology, LICENSE, was designed to calculate fluid balance using data collected from devices measuring urine, oral and intravenous fluids.

Quality of fluid balance charting and interventions to improve it: a systematic review.

Introduction: Fluid balance monitoring is pivotal to patients' health. Thus, fluid balance charting is an essential part of clinical nursing documentation. This systematic review aimed to investigate and describe the quality of fluid balance monitoring in medical, surgical and intensive care units, with an emphasis on the completeness of charting data, calculation errors and accuracy, and to evaluate methods used to improve fluid balance charting.

Digitizing fluid balance monitoring may offer a solution for optimizing patient care.

Background: Precise fluid balance monitoring is essential for patient treatment, as incorrect fluid balance can lead to disorders.

Objective: This study aimed to assess the accuracy of the digital technology LICENSE (LIquid balanCE moNitoring SystEm) for fluid balance charting and compare it to the standard method (SM) to determine its usability in clinical practice.

Methods: This prospective study included 20 patients.

Post-obstructive diuresis; underlying causes and hospitalization.

This paper aims to estimate the incidence of post-obstructive diuresis (POD) among patients with urinary retention, explore possible underlying causes and identify patients who need hospitalization. This retrospective study includes patients admitted for urinary retention in Zealand University Hospital, Denmark. We collected demographic characteristics, health information and laboratory results from patients' charts and analyzed data statistically.
