Peezy
Award: Wood Pencil
Wood Pencil / Product Design / Health & Medical / 2009
Peezy is a revolutionary, single-use, hygienic and elegant mid-stream urine collection device for women. It brings dignity to the act of giving a urine sample, and it is quick, easy and clean. Most importantly, Peezy delivers a pure urine sample. By eliminating mess on the patient and environment, it is a valuable tool in the fight against hospital acquired infection. This elegantly simple device can make a major contribution to improved patient care and the health and safety of doctors, nurses, laboratory technicians, cleaning staff and many others in the NHS. In reducing the number of contaminated samples, Peezy provides substantial savings on expensive retests, estimated by NHS PASA to be up to £2 per patient.
