UV Clinical’s patented UVC technology eliminates bacteria and biofilm forming on the inside of catheters and endotracheal tubes during treatment. Bacteria and biofilm often lead to serious, sometimes even fatal infections, especially in haemodialysis, cancer and ICU patients. Average costs of a catheter-related infection are USD 48,000.
UV Clinical’s technology saves lives and reduces treatment costs.

The market potential is massive. UV Clinical’s disinfection technology can help patients from acquiring Catheter-Related Bloodstream Infection (CRBSI), caused by an intravenous catheter. In the US alone, CRBSI affects 80,000 patients annually. The technology can also help patients from acquiring Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia (VAP). There are 250,000 – 300,000 VAP patients in the US each year.
