NanoVibronix Announces PainGuard and UroGuard Approved by Health Canada as Licensed Medical Devices

Increases Opportunity for Broader International Distribution

NanoVibronix, Inc., (NASDAQ: NAOV), a medical device company that produces the UroShield® and PainShield® Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) Portable Ultrasonic Therapeutic Devices, today announced the Company’s PainGuard and UroGuard, offered as private label products through Ideal Medical International Limited, have been approved by Health Canada / Santé Canada as licensed medical devices.

The license issued by Health Canada allows Ideal Medical International Limited (“Ideal Medical”), one of the Company’s international distribution partners, to market and sell the Company’s PainGuard and UroGuard as licensed medical devices in Canada.

“This license clears the way for our distribution partner, Ideal Medical, to accelerate distribution of our products in Canada, another catalyst for our potential future growth and international expansion,” said Brian Murphy, CEO of NanoVibronix. “According to the Canadian Pain Task Force¹, nearly eight million, or one in four Canadians aged 15 or older live with chronic pain. Our pain management products are safe and effective alternative treatment to prescription opioids, which have been the root cause of a number of unintended consequences including overdose and death. Similarly, there are millions of urinary catheters used in hospitals every year, and our urology products can serve as protection against urinary tract infections and the pain associated with the catheters. We are eager to serve the Canadian market through Ideal Medical and look forward to capitalizing on this new opportunity to drive further growth.”
