NanoVibronix Announces ENvue Drive – First Intelligent Robotic Platform in Development for Bedside Feeding Tube and Vascular Line Navigation
ENvue Targeting
This significant step reinforces ENvue’s leadership in clinical navigation and addresses the critical unmet need to increase procedural volume with fewer hands at the bedside. The system, now in engineering development, is being designed to integrate with the Company’s FDA-cleared electromagnetic guidance technology for enteral access, offering automated alignment and positional stability, while allowing clinicians to remain in full control.
“ENvue’s Drive platform marks a transformative move for bedside clinical care,” said Dr.
“Importantly, the Drive platform is a scalable foundation for intelligent bedside navigation. Through this initiative, we believe we are building a future-ready solution portfolio that can evolve with clinical demands across multiple care settings and drive growth.”
Addressing a Growing Global Demand
Each year, tens of millions of nasoenteric tube and vascular access procedures are performed globally. ENvue’s new robotic platform is positioned to address a growing clinical need to automate high-volume, bedside procedures in the face of workforce shortages and increasing patient complexity.
-
The global enteral feeding devices market is projected to reach
$3.99 billion by 2030, driven by aging populations, higher procedural complexity and the rise in chronic illness (Source:Grand View Research , 2024). -
The vascular access device market, including PICC lines, is currently valued at
$6.2 billion , forecasted to exceed$10.5 billion by 2030 (Source: Markets and Markets, 2024). -
In
the United States alone, over 10 million nasoenteric feeding tubes are placed annually (Source: internal market data purchased by ENvue Medical, 2025). -
The robotic catheter navigation segment is expected to grow at over 14% CAGR, reaching
$500 million by 2030 (Source:BIS Research , 2023).
Designed to Assist, Not Replace
Development goals include:
- Automated bedside alignment of ENvue’s electromagnetic probe
- Real-time, stabilized positioning during nasoenteric and PICC procedures
- Reduced need for multiple clinicians to perform a procedure, ideal during nurse shortages
- Hands-free functionality for increased safety, consistency and reproducibility
- Seamless integration with existing ENvue consoles and software
Development and Regulatory Status
The robotic platform is currently in preclinical development phase, with engineering prototypes in process and clinical advisor input underway. The system has not yet been submitted to the
The Company expects to initiate formal regulatory planning and submission milestones later this year and anticipates having a functional prototype by year-end. All future development remains subject to applicable regulatory approvals.
Building on Recent Strategic Momentum
This announcement follows a strong second quarter for
-
Execution of a dual-system acquisition agreement with a major
Northeastern U.S. hospital, reinforcing ENvue’s momentum in adult enteral feeding tube navigation. -
Issuance of a new
U.S. patent protecting ENvue’s electromagnetic guidance system for pediatric feeding applications. -
Continued geographic expansion across the Southeast, Midwest, and
Northeastern U.S. , with growing market penetration.
About
- Acoustic-based therapeutic technologies, including PainShield® and UroShield®, which utilize proprietary low-intensity surface acoustic wave (SAW) technology. These devices are intended for use in home or care settings and are designed to treat pain, reduce bacterial colonization, and disrupt biofilms.

ENvue™ Navigation Platform, developed and operated by ENvue Medical, with offices in
Arlington Heights, Illinois , andTel Aviv, Israel , is a minimally invasive electromagnetic navigation system intended to assist clinicians in placing feeding tubes into the gastrointestinal tract. FDA 510(k) cleared for adult use, ENvue provides real-time bedside visualization of tube movement and supports informed decision-making during the placement procedure. Future platform expansion may include pediatric and vascular access applications.
