EXOGEN has been shown in multiple clinical studies to heal many types of broken bones, in many locations in the human body 5-6.
EXOGEN has an 86% success rate when used to treat non-unions. The EXOGEN system's low intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) technology is compatible and successful with all types of broken bone management techniques. In fact, studies of patients with previously unhealed broken bones that had not healed within one year showed successful heal rates of 86%3,24.
One of the greatest benefits of EXOGEN low intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) is its ability to help heal broken bones that would otherwise be delayed by patient factors such as smoking. Other patient factors include: diabetes, obesity and osteoporosis. Doctors call these factors risk factors. In fact, EXOGEN ultrasound may accelerate fracture healing by as much as 50% in patients who smoke 12.
In studies where fracture patients were prescribed EXOGEN soon after the initial bone fracture, they healed 38% faster than patients using a placebo (control) device. In addition, patients who used EXOGEN low intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) were able to have their casts removed an average of 22% sooner than patients with a placebo device2.
