TENA Identifi

TENA Identifi voiding reports – greatly improved care

The TENA Identifi^TM System helps care homes access detailed and previously unknown information about their residents’ voiding habits. It is a convenient system that tracks a resident’s voiding during 72 hours, generating a report with in-depth knowledge of patterns and volumes. The detailed information helps determine the most appropriate absorbent products, recommended toileting times and adjustments of care routines – contributing to more effective, and documented, continence care and improved resident well-being. 

A new level of knowledge

During the assessment, highly absorbent and comfortable TENA Identifi^TM Sensor Wear replaces regular incontinence protection. A silent, reusable TENA Identifi^TM Logger attached to TENA Identifi^TM Sensor Wear records the filling of urine. The information is automatically transmitted to a secure web portal where it is converted into an easy-to-read, graphic voiding report, always maintaining resident privacy.
