Who it's for
What changes for patients, caregivers and facilities
Choose who you are to see what LUBOA changes for you.
Care facilities
Recalculate storage, disposal and the cost of excretion care.
A small difference per patient becomes an operational difference across the facility.
01Repeated use
Patients×Uses per day×30 days
For consumables used every day, small differences in volume and weight accumulate in inventory and storage.
- PatientsResidents who need continence care
- Uses per dayHow often each patient is changed per day
- 30 daysPurchasing, storage and disposal over a month
02Volume, handling, cost
Excretion and consumables are handled separately
Excretion goes to the toilet and used film is handled separately, so excretion and consumables are managed apart.
Disposal
ExcretionVia toilet
Used filmDisposed of separately
Cost
Conventional, per person/monthKRW 60,000–85,000
LUBOA, per person/monthKRW 54,000
100 residentsKRW 600,000 / month (est. difference)
- Potential reduction in waste volume
- Potential relief from waste storage space
- Potential relief from repeated disposal work
03Operations
From purchasing to disposal, what changes at each stage
With LUBOA the interface is reused and only the thin film collection bag is replaced. Facilities can review the following differences at each stage of operation.
| Stage | Conventional | LUBOA |
|---|---|---|
| Purchasing | Bulky consumables bought repeatedly | Interface reused; the replaceable item is the film collection bag |
| Storage | Boxes of consumables take up storage space | Potentially less storage volume with thin film |
| Changing | Full change including clothing and repositioning | Interface stays; only the collection bag is changed |
| Disposal | Excretion and consumables discarded together | Excretion to the toilet; used film handled separately |
04Before adoption
What we review together before adoption
Before the pilot starts, we agree with the facility on scope and evaluation criteria.
01
Target patients
Decide which patient groups, such as bedridden residents, and how many to include.
02
Staff guidance
Show care staff how to attach, change and dispose.
03
Disposal rules
Check that the method fits the facility's waste classification and handling rules.
04
Evaluation items
Agree in advance on usability, skin condition and change/disposal workload.
05Pilot
Pilot program
Adoption is reviewed step by step: consultation → samples → pilot → evaluation → supply agreement.
- 01ConsultationReview the facility and target patients
- 02SamplesProvide samples and usage guidance
- 03PilotApply on site for an agreed period
- 04EvaluationCheck usability, skin condition and workload
