GenixUro AI resolves Catheter Associated Urinary Tract Infection (CAUTI) without antibiotics.

90.3%efficacy in preventing CAUTI in randomized Trial 1. No CAUTI in Trials 2 and 3.

A Critical Care System, built for Critical Care Medicine. A thumb-sized, sterile device that attaches to any urinary catheter and lets the bladder fill, flush and empty the way nature intended. Supported by AI diagnostics. Made in the United States.

The problem

Ninety years without a definitive solution.

Catheter Associated Urinary Tract Infection is a plumbing problem that medicine has been treating with pharmacology. Stagnant urine and biofilm shield bacteria from antibiotics and from the immune system.

1936
In Boston, Dr. Donald Munro of Harvard showed that cycling the bladder, instead of draining it constantly, cut infection at 10 days from about 73% to 15%.American Urological Association, May 19, 1936. Figures as cited in the TekGenius trial report.
“Can we build a better urinary catheter?”Calvin Kunin, New England Journal of Medicine, 1988
≈3.0MUS CAUTIs a year, every one treated with antibiotics
≈2 in 3occur in outpatient and home care, with no national surveillance
415Mindwelling catheters used worldwide each year
The device

Munro’s 1936 principle, automated.

GenixUro AI sits at the catheter outlet, upstream of the tubing and bag. The catheter doesn’t change, and the nursing workload doesn’t grow.

  • OpensAt precisely 20 ± 1 cm H2O, a normal voiding pressure
  • EmptiesStays open until the bladder is empty, then snaps shut, sealed against backflow
  • SterileSingle-use and disposable, designed for the same maximum 30 days as the catheter
  • FitsThumb-sized, and attaches to any catheter in seconds with a universal adapter
  • MadeClean-room assembly in the United States

  • Trial 1 was randomized, with 68 completers. CAUTI: Fisher exact p < 0.00001.
  • Trials 2 and 3: 0 of 88 patients developed CAUTI and 0 of 88 needed antibiotics (prior-patient controls, supportive).
  • 3,355 patient-days with no device malfunctions or safety issues reported.
  • About 80% less catheter-care time in our studies.
The GenixUro AI family

A proven base device. Intelligence next.

AI diagnostics landscape

Urine diagnostics are half a century behind.

Cardiology has continuous monitoring. Diabetes has real-time glucose. Critical care has bedside blood gases. Urine still gets a dipstick, a cup, and a culture that takes days.

GenixUro AI

Continuous. In line with the catheter.

None of today’s products works in line at the catheter, around the clock. GenixUro AI is built to close that gap: continuous urine analysis at the catheter, with results going straight to the care team.
