PHYSIOSTIM

The ​​PhysioStim™ device provides a safe, non-invasive option for treating fractures that are difficult to heal.​With an overall clinical success rate of 80 percent (up to 88 percent for fracture gaps less than 3mm), PhysioStim devices have high success rates for treating nonunion fractures. The device assists in fracture healing by delivering a pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) signal to the targeted fracture site.

PHYSIOSTIM

The PhysioStim device has been approved by the FDA for the treatment of nonunion fractures.1,2 A nonunion is a fracture that has shown no visible signs of healing. For complete prescribing information, please refer to the Instruction Manual.
