About Interlinked AB
Interlinked AB is a Swedish MedTech company developing a patented safety connector technology focused on risk reduction in invasive medical procedures. The company's platform reduces accidental catheter dislodgement, improves patient safety, and lowers avoidable clinical and operational costs for healthcare providers. Interlinked operates internationally with contracted commercial activity across Europe, the Middle East, and North America.
About ReLink / LinkUS
ReLink / LinkUS is a safety connector platform designed to reduce unintended catheter dislodgement by maintaining system integrity during external harmful forces. The platform is approved for use in nephrostomy drainage, IV therapy, and veterinary care, and has been clinically validated in various care settings. The technology is CE-MDR approved for all indications and FDA registered for drain. Selected ReLink configurations are approved for dual civilian and military use in Europe.
North America focus
In North America, Interlinked's commercial focus is on LinkUS Drain, a safety connector designed for nephrostomy drainage catheters. Accidental catheter dislodgement in nephrostomy care is a high-cost, avoidable complication, often leading to reinsertion procedures, infection risk, prolonged care, and additional downstream interventions.
While existing procedure codes reimburse catheter reinsertion, they do not capture the full economic impact of dislodgement events, which frequently includes imaging, procedural resources, extended length of stay, and complication management. As a result, healthcare providers often absorb a substantial share of the total cost.
LinkUS Drain is positioned as a risk-reducing safety device tackling dislodgement associated clinical and operational consequences. The product is FDA registered, has been presented at the Society of Interventional Radiology, and is supported by US-focused publications currently in progress.
Interlinked is actively engaging US distribution partners for LinkUS Drain as part of its North American expansion.
