N8 Medical is a clinical-stage medical device company based in Dublin, Ohio, developing antimicrobial medical devices and coatings to address hospital-acquired infections and their impact on patient care and costs. The company uses ceragenins, a proprietary class of compounds, to imbue medical devices with antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties, aiming to transform existing devices into higher-value options. The FDA designated the CeraShield drug-eluting endotracheal tube as a breakthrough device in April 2017, with IDE approval anticipated in February 2018. Operating in the medical equipment manufacturing sector, N8 Medical targets healthcare facilities seeking to reduce device-related infections and improve patient outcomes. A recent development is a coating partnership with Hydromer for the CeraShield endotracheal tubes announced in November 2020. The company maintains a small team and provides information at n8medical.com.
