Problems solved by technology

However, collection of blood is an invasive procedure that requires medical assistance
In addition, many biomarkers (such as stress) can be affected by the blood draw itself; besides being costly and inconvenient, patients often fear needle sticks
As a result, many conditions go undiagnosed, making treatment expensive, difficult, and sometimes fatal
Other bodily fluids have also been considered for determining biomarkers in blood, for example, saliva, urine, feces, breath and sweat have all been considered, but are embarrassing and very easily contaminated
Furthermore, using implantable sensors to analyze blood is expensive and invasive and presents significant risks

Embodiment Construction

[0059] This disclosure describes a novel disposable feminine hygiene product (e.g., in the form of a pad, tampon, menstrual cup, or similar structure) that embeds an electrochemical paper fluidic platform with a microprocessor, battery, and transceiver, hereinafter also referred to as Called "integrated diagnostic device", "vaginal fluid monitoring device" or "smart menstrual pad" or "SMP". Specialized sensors that analyze bodily fluids (eg, menstrual blood) can monitor the health and general conditions of the human body by analyzing fluids in, for example, biosensors and converting the results into digital signals through electrochemical detection. A non-limiting advantage of an integrated diagnostic device according to one or more embodiments is that monitoring, analysis and reporting can be done simply and with minimal steps and interventions by the patient. Once the feminine hygiene product is located and the integrated diagnostics have been activated, processing requires ...
