Next Generation Device Configured with
Multiple Frequencies to Enhance Product Performance and
Effectiveness
NanoVibronix, Inc., (NASDAQ: NAOV) (the “Company”), a medical
device company utilizing the Company's proprietary and patented low
intensity surface acoustic wave (“SAW”) technology, today announced
it has filed a new provisional patent application with the United
States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) entitled “Multiple
Frequency Surface Acoustic Waves for Internal Medical Device” (the
"Patent Application") related to its UroShield.
The Patent Application covers a recently developed enhancement
to the UroShield product, UroShield “Ultra”, which incorporates
improvements to the Company’s original UroShield. The next
generation UroShield Ultra includes modified housing that is
designed to improve catheter coupling and incorporates multiple
actuators that work in sequence to discourage bacterial docking by
delivering SAWs at multiple frequencies directly to indwelling
catheters.
“UroShield is, to our knowledge, the only proven, effective
solution for the prevention of Catheter Associated Urinary Tract
Infections (“CAUTI”), the single highest source of hospital
acquired infections,” stated Brian Murphy, Chief Executive Officer
of NanoVibronix. “This new filing expands our portfolio of
intellectual property assets and reinforces our competitive
position. UroShield has been proven to be instrumental in improving
outcomes for hospital patients suffering from CAUTI. We are
continually seeking opportunities to improve our products and by
employing cutting edge technology.”
