ENvue Medical, Inc. (NASDAQ:FEED) ("ENvue," "ENvue Medical" or the "Company"), a medical technology company specializing in non-invasive therapeutic systems, today announced that the UroShield® Kit has been added to the UK National Health Service (NHS) Drug Tariff Part IX, enabling nationwide prescription reimbursement across the UK.

In parallel with this reimbursement milestone, ENvue Medical has secured an initial purchase order from Peak Medical, a leading UK-based distributor specializing in stoma care and urology medical devices with a vast network of hospitals and community settings, reflecting early commercial demand following NHS Drug Tariff inclusion.

The NHS Drug Tariff Part IX establishes a direct, prescription-based reimbursement pathway, significantly expanding access for the UroShield® Kit, which is used in conjunction with the UroShield® Actuator that was previously included in the NHS Drug Tariff Part IX in the UK in 2023, across community and hospital care settings. Long-term urinary catheterization is common in the UK, with published studies indicating catheter prevalence of approximately 6–7% in long-term care populations, a patient group associated with elevated risk of catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs).¹

UroShield® is a non-invasive device designed to reduce catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs) and catheter blockages by applying low-frequency ultrasonic energy to the catheter, helping to inhibit biofilm formation. CAUTIs are among the most common device-associated healthcare-acquired infections globally.²,³
