Peezy Midstream is a medical device for urine collection. It collects urine specimen and captures only midstream urine. The device kit includes genital wipe, peezy funnel and either 30 mL or 10 mL collection tube. In urine collection, the person attaches a tube to Peezy, wipes her/her genital, places Peezy against the body (a woman) or over the toilet (a man) and releases urine. When collection is finished, Peezy is detached from the tube which is replaced by a lid.
The Institute has been informed by the manufacturer Peezy Midstream has been withdrawn from the UK market. NICE has therefore decided to suspend the guidance development in its current work programme. We will continue to monitor any developments and will update interested parties if the situation changes.
