Right first time Peezy Traditional hit and miss UC
Asking women to pee into a Universal Container (UC) is the most common urine collection method today.
It’s an undignified and unhygienic process that hardly chimes with the concept of modern medicine, at best comedic and at worst, dirty and inaccurate. The answer is Peezy, invented by a GP to improve the urine specimen process for his female patients and provide right-first-time treatment.
Urine analysis is low-tech but perfectly targeted medicine and Peezy’s clean midstream sample (MSU), means women have a higher chance of being diagnosed and treated – accurately and quickly.
Why re-testing is a waste of time and money for everyone
Today’s national average contamination and retest rate can reach 30%. Each ‘wrong’ sample should be taken again at a cost of at least £8.50/test, duplicating expensive clinician and lab time and delaying accurate diagnosis and treatment.
Peezy has been shown to reduce the contamination/retest rate by up to 80%. This could save around £70m for the NHS. Download our cost savings analysis here.
Why Peezy is the most hygenic specimen collection system
Peezy’s unique and patented design prevents the spread of urine, which can carry Chlamydia, Gonorrhoea, Hepatitis B and C, HIV and MRSA, plus the more common organisms of UTI, such as E Coli. Peezy is available through WMS, direct from us, or from 1st March 2012 via the NHS Supply Chain. It can also be prescribed from the Drug Tariff Part IXB, no D590.
