NeurAxis, Inc. (NRXS), a medical technology company commercializing neuromodulation therapies addressing chronic and debilitating conditions in children and adults, today announced that it received a new 510(k) clearance for IB-Stim™ Nonimplanted Nerve Stimulator for functional abdominal pain relief. The new indication expands IB-Stim’s addressable market and overall devices per patient. NeurAxis leveraged its robust published data to receive this new indication.
“We are excited to receive this new 510(k) clearance for IB-Stim, which expands the IB-Stim addressable market by roughly 75%,” said Brian Carrico, President and Chief Executive Officer of NeurAxis. “Furthermore, we expect devices per patient to increase, as this new FDA clearance states on label use of four devices per patient. All of this has been achieved due to the strong body of published research, which has resulted in the increased acceptance of our PENFS technology. This includes ongoing expansion of payer coverage, as well as the recent establishment of a new CPT Category I code by the American Medical Association, effective January 2026. Our recent achievements in our commercialization strategy have set the stage for increased revenue and margin growth in the upcoming quarters.” Mr. Carrico concluded.
NeurAxis’ PENFS technology, IB-Stim, is FDA-cleared for functional abdominal pain associated with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) in adolescents 8-21 years old. IB-Stim is a non-surgical device that sends gentle electrical impulses into cranial nerve bundles in the ear. There are currently no FDA-approved drug therapies for children with abdominal pain-related disorders of the gut-brain interaction. Pharmacologic treatments that use drugs off-label can often have serious side effects, and most lack scientific evidence of efficacy.
