About Vaporox and Its Advancements
Vaporox operates from Denver and has made significant strides in developing its focused technology, the Vaporous Hyperoxia Therapy (VHT) device. This groundbreaking device harnesses ultrasonic mist and concentrated oxygen, providing clinicians with an effective means to treat chronic and hard-to-heal wounds. The VHT device has successfully obtained FDA clearance, allowing it to address a variety of wounds, including those classified as Diabetic Foot Ulcers (DFUs), Venous Leg Ulcers (VLUs), and Pressure Ulcers, which are commonly known as bed sores.
Clinical Success of Vaporous Hyperoxia Therapy
The effectiveness of Vaporox's VHT has been substantiated through three independent clinical studies. In these studies, patients experienced over 80% wound healing rates within just 20 weeks when combining VHT with standard wound care protocols. The synergy of VHT with MiMedx’s renowned Advanced Wound Care solutions, such as EPIFIX®, further emphasizes the potential impact of this partnership on patient recovery.
