NanoVibronix (NAOV) Confirms FDA 510(k) Premarket Clearance for PainShield Plus

NanoVibronix, Inc., (NASDAQ: NAOV), a medical device company utilizing the Company's proprietary and patented low intensity surface acoustic wave (SAW) technology, today announced U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 510(k) clearance of its PainShield® MD PLUS, its dual-actuator ultrasound pain therapy device.

Brian Murphy, CEO of NanoVibronix, stated, “Securing 510(k) clearance for PainShield Plus is a key milestone towards achieving permanent clearance from the FDA and full-scale commercial marketability. Increasingly, healthcare providers and patients are seeking effective, non-pharmaceutical therapies for the treatment of chronic pain. PainShield Plus expands on the effectiveness of its predecessor, our original PainShield M.D., by covering twice the treatment area and broadening the opportunities for application. As a result, we have started the process of making the recommended modifications to the device in order to comply with the FDA standard. In addition, this approval opens the door for us to submit a 510(k) application for our Over-The-Counter product, PainShield Relief, in the near term.”

About PainShield Plus

PainShield Plus, like the original PainShield, utilizes ultrasound therapy for the treatment of pain and various soft tissue injuries either directly over joints or orthopedic hardware and without the need for messy ultrasound gels. The device is an effective solution for avoiding opioid treatments and equips patients to receive therapy independently in the comfort and safety of their own homes.

The device consists of a reusable driver unit and disposables, which includes a proprietary therapeutic transducer and cover adhesive to deliver a localized ultrasound effect to treat pain and induce soft tissue healing in a targeted area, while keeping the level of ultrasound energy at a safe and consistent level. Its range of applications includes acute and chronic pain resolution through its many mechanisms of action and can be used by patients at home, work or in a clinical setting and can be used even while the patient is sleeping. Patient benefits include ease of application and use, faster recovery time, high compliance, and increased safety and efficacy over existing devices that rely on higher-frequency ultrasound.
