Press release, Helsinki, 17 April 2023 at 9 AM (EEST)
Nexstim Plc (NXTMH:HEX) ("Nexstim" or "Company") announces the launch of NBS 6, a new navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation (nTMS) system software generation, in the United States.
The NBS 6 enables Nexstim’s unique E-field navigated TMS technology to be used more easily than ever before. Part of this new product generation is an easy-to-use, software-guided application and a modular product design that allows for system capabilities to expand over time and be highly customized based on a customer’s research or treatment interests.
The first release concerns therapy applications. In the United States, the NBS 6 is currently indicated for the treatment of Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) in adult patients who have failed to achieve satisfactory improvement from prior antidepressant medication in the current episode.
Nexstim will be unveiling the NBS 6 system at the Clinical TMS Society 11th Annual Meeting, held in Colorado Springs, Unites States on May 4 – 6. More information on the NBS 6 system is already available on Nexstim’s website: www.nexstim.com/healthcare-professionals/nbs-6.
The NBS 6 is expected to be available for the European market later in 2023.
Mikko Karvinen, CEO of Nexstim, comments: “We at Nexstim are proud of our clinically established technology and are excited to release the NBS 6, allowing the best possible level of usability of our technology. The modular product design will allow us to continue responding to the increased customer demand for systems that allow the delivery of both diagnostic and therapeutic applications. I would like to thank the Nexstim team, as well as our customers, for their valuable input during the product development process and for their hard work towards this strategically important product release.”
