Summary
Key Points: 
  • The proprietary sensor arrays make the Medic.Lav the worlds most advanced smart toilet.
  • Medic.Life has more than 60 patents and another 90 patents pending for the technology associated with the toilet.
  • Millions are prediabetic, hypertensive, have a chronic disease or a virusand they dont even know it, said Chad Adams, Medic.Life CEO and president.
  • Medic is looking for the best and brightest biotech partners to be part of what will be a commonplace way to passively prevent disease and other health problems.


The planned demonstration of a virus-detecting smart toilet at the HIMSS Global Health Conference will not take place after the event was canceled over the coronavirus outbreak. But the quest is still on for Medic.Life (www.medic.life) to meet interested partners about adapting their biomedical instrumentation into the modular Medic.Lav platform before it becomes available in the next two years.

The proprietary sensor arrays make the Medic.Lav the world’s most advanced smart toilet. It gathers different health metrics passively during each bathroom visit and uses AI to analyze samples and generate trends for its users, who can monitor their progress with a secure mobile app. Medic.Life has more than 60 patents and another 90 patents pending for the technology associated with the toilet.

“Millions are prediabetic, hypertensive, have a chronic disease or a virus–and they don’t even know it,” said Chad Adams, Medic.Life CEO and president. “Medic is looking for the best and brightest biotech partners to be part of what will be a commonplace way to passively prevent disease and other health problems.”

Early adopters of this technology will likely be clinics; retail outlets; senior care and assisted living centers; pharma and lab science facilities; and other health care providers.

“The Medic.Lav makes improving a person’s wellness easy, convenient and fit naturally into their daily routine,” added Adams.

Medic.Life is still interested in meeting with potential biotech partners or investors to demonstrate the feasibility and capability of the smart toilet for analyzing waste using the miniaturized technology housed within the device. These capabilities open doors for adapting existing applications in medicine, general wellness, clinical compliance as well as pharmaceutical research and development.

HIMSS Info

Medic.Life planned to exhibit the Medic.Lav at the 2020 HIMSS Global Health Conference on March 9-13 in Orlando, Florida. The conference was canceled because organizers decided the risk of spreading the coronavirus was too great. Those who planned to attend HIMSS can still visit www.medic.life to get more information or arrange to see a demonstration of the Medic.Lav at the Medic.Life headquarters in Provo, Utah.
