Gynaecological procedures, such as the insertion of intrauterine devices (IUDs), are often performed with the tenaculum, an obsolete instrument that pierces cervical tissue with sharp hooks. This method causes pain, bleeding and trauma in millions of women each year, with 89% of patients reporting significant discomfort during use.
Aspivix proposes an innovative alternative with Carevix, an atraumatic cervical stabiliser that uses vacuum suction instead of hooks, reducing pain and bleeding by more than 70%. With FDA approval, CE marking and a strong patent portfolio, Carevix has been validated in clinical studies and in more than 600 real cases, showing its efficacy and safety.
This investment round will allow Aspivix to expand the launch of Carevix in Europe and the US, optimise its manufacturing and advance the development of new devices. In a market that directly impacts the health and well-being of millions of women, Aspivix represents an opportunity to transform modern gynaecology.
