UroSense: Reducing the risk of catheter infections
Founded by Manoj Murali, Shawn Navarednam, Regwaan Choudhury and Federico Fries, UroSense is a medtech startup that is looking to redesign the current Foley catheter, a device that has lacked innovation for over 80 years. The founding team believes that it is time for a new take on the Foley catheter in order to prevent patients from catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI), which is one of the most painful yet common types of infection a person can contract in the hospital, according to the American Association of Critical-Care Nurses.
