HyStool® – A Simple, Hygienic Stool Sample Collection Device
HyStool® is a faecal stool sample test collection device that is simple to use, hygienic, lightweight and because it is 100% water soluble it simply flushes away. Unlike paper sheet based stool collectors HyStool® actually dissolves 100% in cold water, and provides a stool collection method that is environmentally friendly. HyStool® was designed to fit inside a standard size envelope. For example it would easily fit inside a screening test kit such as the one used by the NHS for bowel cancer screening.
Collecting a stool sample can be uncomfortable and unpleasant, which often discourages people from completing important medical tests. HyStool® is a purpose-designed stool sample collection device — sometimes referred to as a feces catcher — created to make stool sample collection cleaner, easier and more acceptable for both patients and healthcare providers.
HyStool® is suitable for use at home, in clinics and hospitals, and within screening programmes where accurate stool samples are essential.
Simply attach a HyStool® bag to your toilet seat … and pass a stool into the bag. Take the required smear sample. Once finished detach the bag from the seat and simply flush away.
