Clinical Trials
In 2006, the Company and the Lahey Clinic jointly announced a three-year program to study the effects of ActiPatch Therapy on a variety of soft tissue injuries and related medical conditions. The internationally renowned Lahey Clinic of Boston, whose faculty is affiliated with the Medical Schools of Harvard and Tufts, has committed to initiating a number of double-blind clinical studies on ActiPatch Therapy in the areas of plastic surgery, orthopedics and chronic wound care. Results from these clinical trials will be submitted to the United States Food and Drug Administration (the FDA) for expanded indications for the use of ActiPatch Therapy.
The company also commenced a series of double-blind clinical trials to be conducted in conjunction with leading schools of podiatry and selected clinics to document the effects of ActiPatch on treating plantar fasciitis [heel pain]. The studies started in March 2006. The Principal Investigator for the study is Dr. William Van der Reis, a Board Certified Orthopedic Surgeon and sports medicine specialist. The study protocol was approved by the Investigational Review Board, Coast IRB, of San Clemente, CA.

"I use ActiPatch on every facial procedure. It reduces my patients bruising and swelling by 50% following Blepharoplasty, Face Lifts and Rhinoplasty. As a result of ActiPatch two weeks of standard surgical recovery has been reduced to 5 to 7 days."

"I have a very large breast augmentation practice. After conducting a double-blind study, I have found that ActiPatch is extremely effective in curbing post-operative pain. In my professional opinion, ActiPatch is effective for short term control of the acute pain that occurs following breast surgery."
Kimberley Goh, M.D., Myrtle Beach, SC
"ActiPatch has made a world of difference in post-op pain control in my patients. We apply ActiPatch to all abdominoplasty patients. The difference in pain control is amazing."
William Van der Reis M.D.
Board Certified Orthopedic Surgeon, San Clemente, CA
"I have found that ActiPatch usually resolves pain associated with heel pain conditions such as plantar fasciitis in as little as 2-3 days. The potential for ActiPatch in the treatment of inflammatory conditions such as heel pain and acute sports injuries is enormous. The PEMF technology is safe and has been used for years, but until now it has not been available in a patch that a patient can wear at home."

"I started using ActiPatch approximately one year ago and have been impressed with the results. It reduces pain and edema without medication. I started using ActiPatch on patients who had no insurance to get physical therapy, or who had failed therapy and other conservative care. The amount of pain relief and edema reduction is remarkable with the ActiPatch. The ActiPatch unit is safe and low cost, small, portable and a narcotic free, pain-free device."

"I have exposed 60 of my patients with heel pain to your ActiPatch device. This was instead of an oral NSAID. None were given steroid injestions on their initial visit, just the ActiPatch for endema control. Of the 60 patients, 4 returned the patch for a refund and one of the 4 patches was retuned because it had been mauled by their cat. I have had the amazing claims of no pain immediately after applying the device. The more common statement is that they can tell it is helping. The patients are excited about avoiding the cost of prescription medications. Some have to supplement with something OTC. All in all this has turned out to be a great option for my patients. It gives them a choice to avoid a shot or medication side effects. They appreciate your guarantee of a refund but are not taking advantage of it in my office. Thank you for the tips and customer support during my calls about your product."
