Abstract
An oxygen-sensing assembly for attachment to a urinary catheter may include a housing having a flow pathway extending between an inlet end and an outlet end thereof, an oxygen sensor in operable communication with the flow pathway of the housing, the oxygen sensor configured to detect oxygen levels of a fluid flowing through the flow pathway, a flowrate sensor configured to detect a flowrate of the fluid flowing through the flow pathway, and a temperature sensor configured to detect a temperature of the fluid flowing through the flow pathway.
