KORMORAN11 is an innovative patented product which can improve men`s health supporting active ageing by simple self testing of uroflow at home. It mainly addresses men who prefer testing in privacy first - before consulting a specialist. An uroflow below a certain threshold* is a signal for a potential prostate and/or bladder modification. In Europe ca. 60 % of the 60 million men in the age of over 60 years show an enlarged prostate. Men above 80 years of age already have a 90 % probability of an enlarged prostate**. KORMORAN11 has been co-developed by EARLIEBIRDIE, a Bavarian start-up company, together with Digmesa AG, a Swiss precision flowmeter specialist. The development was granted by Bayern Innovativ. Leading expert urologists were medical consultants of this project. Next milestone will be a European certification following EUMDR (2017)- which is almost done, followed by first steps towards market.*Threshold due to European medical guidelines.
