Patient Self-Care

FlowOx™

A technology for the treatment of reduced peripheral microcirculation.

FlowOx™ works by exercising the blood vessels from the small arteries to the capillaries in the outer layers of the skin.

Pulsating Negative Pressure Therapy

FlowOx™ is a Pulsating Negative Pressure Therapy.

FlowOx™ is a Class IIa Medical Device which improves blood flow to patients’ legs by applying a negative oscillating pressure. It is comfortable and can be used while patients are at rest.

FlowOx™ has a low barrier to regular use.

FlowOx™ can transiently increase blood flow in lower extremities by about 60% in the small arteries and more than 100% in the capillaries.

FlowOx™ is a noninvasive device enabling patients to treat themselves in the comfort of their own homes.

For Blood Flow Deficiencies

FlowOx™ is recommended for patients of over 18 years who suffer from blood flow deficiencies in the lower limbs such as:

a) Peripheral arterial disease (PAD),
b) Diabetic and non-diabetic arteriopathic foot and leg ulcers,
c) Intermittent claudication and rest pain,
d) Foot and lower leg ulcers of mixed aetiology associated with immobility such as paraplegia following spinal injury.

FlowOx™ is an additional treatment and can be used in conjunction with standard care (typical wound care and medication).

FlowOx™ is CE-marked (CE2460)
