| Medical Device for Indwelling Catheter Infection Control in UKPeak Medical is highlighting its specialist approach to catheter care with solutions designed to support people living with long-term indwelling urinary catheters.
By: Peak Medical Supporting Better Catheter Care Long-term indwelling catheter users can experience challenges including bacterial build-up, biofilm formation, catheter blockages and catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs). Peak Medical offers UroShield, a disposable ultrasound device designed specifically for use with indwelling catheters. The system generates low-intensity ultrasonic energy throughout the catheter to help interfere with bacterial attachment and biofilm formation. UroShield is designed with two main components: a reusable driver and a disposable actuator that clips onto the catheter. According to Peak Medical, the device can also help reduce sediment and encrustation that may contribute to catheter blockages. Specialist Support for Healthcare Needs As a CAUTI prevention device supplier, Peak Medical focuses on providing specialist products alongside accessible information and support. The company encourages patients to discuss suitability and access with their healthcare professional, particularly where prescription or ongoing clinical care is involved. Peak Medical's wider product portfolio includes urology, ostomy and catheter-related solutions, reflecting its focus on practical healthcare products that can support patients and healthcare professionals across the UK.
