Peezy Midstream for urine collection: Medtech innovation briefing [MIB183]

This Medtech innovation briefing was published in May 2019, and advises on the use of Peezy Midstream. It is used for collecting a midstream urine (MSU) sample.The innovative aspect is that Peezy Midstream captures only MSU, without needing the patient to interrupt the flow of urine.The intended place in therapy would be as an alternative to standard urine collection containers for MSU samples in people needing a urine test.The resource impact would be a small increase in cost which may be offset against a reduction in contamination rates of MSU collection and subsequent retesting.
