Mediwatch Signs Five Year Distribution Agreement With Inverness Medical

Mediwatch plc (Mediwatch), a nephrology and urology devices company, has signed a five-year agreement for the worldwide distribution of PSAwatch, its flagship point-of-care total PSA measuring system for prostate cancer, with Inverness Medical Innovations, Inc. (Inverness Medical), an in vitro diagnostics compan.

Philip Stimpson, Mediwatch chief executive commented’

“We are confident that this strategically important distribution agreement will deliver a significant revenue stream. The market for point of care diagnostics is growing rapidly as a result of a combination of; the population aging, growth of local clinics, home testing and the need for faster, cheaper, more portable and easier to use medical equipment.

“This is a significant development for Mediwatch as it means we can both actively promote worldwide the early diagnosis of prostate cancer, with portable rapid-testing equipment. This is particularly poignant and gratifying for us, being a British company, as this is Prostate Cancer Awareness Month in the UK.”
