Interlinked AB has announced that its ReLink medical device platform has received CE-MDR approval as a dual-use solution for both civilian and military healthcare. The platform is designed to support patient safety in hospitals, field hospitals, and emergency preparedness settings. ReLink has already been used clinically in multiple European hospitals, demonstrating its ability to improve safety and efficiency in intravenous therapy and drainage procedures. The device features a unique breakaway connector that stays closed before, during, and after separation, reducing the risk of accidental catheter dislodgement, spills, contamination, and other complications that can result in patient harm.

The system’s double-valved mechanism ensures that the connector remains sealed even under challenging conditions, offering reliable protection for patients and freeing healthcare staff to focus on care rather than device management. Its design is particularly suited for high-pressure environments such as field hospitals and emergency situations, where resources are limited and patient safety is critical.
Katarina Hedbeck, CEO and co-founder of Interlinked AB, said that ReLink represents a strategic milestone for the company. She highlighted that the platform’s ability to provide consistent safety and functionality in both civilian and military settings underscores its versatility. Hedbeck emphasized the company’s commitment to promoting patient safety across all care environments, from major hospitals to emergency medical operations.
