Fintek Bio-Electric Response BR1 Bone Growth Stimulator
Overview
The Fintek Bio-Electric Response BR1 is a Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Capacitively Coupled Bone Growth Stimulator, engineered to deliver electrical impulses within a base frequency range of 50KHz to 60KHz. These impulses are designed to promote the healing of fractured bones, fusions, and damaged surrounding tissues. This specific frequency has been demonstrated to be effective for fractures and fusions that are typically slow to heal or unlikely to heal on their own, especially in patients with additional health concerns or risk factors for delayed or non-union. The device is also commonly used for patients requiring early intervention for acute fractures.
Patient Applications
The Fintek Bio-Electric Response BR1 is suitable for use on patients with both appendicular and spinal fractures.
Common Fractures and Fusions Treated
Fractures and fusions commonly treated with the BR1 include, but are not limited to:
- Tibia and Fibula Fractures
- Foot and Ankle Fractures
- Metatarsals
- Femur
- Patella
- Foot and Toe Fusions
- Forearm (ulna and radius)
- Humerus
- Spine (Cervical, Thoracic and Lumbar)
- Spinal Fusions
- Scaphoid and other common hand fractures
- Clavicle
- Hip and Pelvis Fractures
Device Features
The electrodes supplied with the device are designed to cover extensive fracture areas, making them suitable for treating multiple fractures, segmental fractures, and comminuted fractures.
Training and Support
A qualified Fintek Bio-Electric staff member, experienced in device operation, will provide thorough training to patients on the effective use of the Fintek Bio-Electric Response. Regular follow-ups are scheduled at set intervals to address any questions or concerns regarding treatment.
Treatment Supplies
Fintek staff ensure that every patient receives sufficient supplies to complete their treatment regimen.
Device Portability and Operation
The Fintek Bio-Electric Response device is developed for ease of use and portability. Its lightweight, hand-held design allows it to be conveniently clipped onto a belt or carried in a pocket, enabling patients to continue their daily activities during treatment. The device is programmed to deliver three hours of treatment each day for a total of nine months, resulting in 255 individual treatment sessions throughout the prescribed period. Powered by a standard 9V DC alkaline battery, the unit offers over 50 hours of operation on a single battery, ensuring reliable and sustained use without frequent battery changes.
