Technology Overview
First introduced for stone fragmentation in the 1970s, focused low-intensity extracorporeal shock wave therapy (LI-ESWT) has since evolved to successfully address additional medical concerns in orthopedics for its anti-inflammatory benefits and in cardiology to promote angiogenesis, the formation of blood vessels.
What is LI-EWST?
Focused LI-EWST, delivered with Alma Duo’s patented electrohydraulic applicator, consists of a short pulse of about 0.5µs duration or a near instantaneous jump to a peak positive pressure, which is referred to as a ‘shock’, followed by a longer-lasting period of negative pressure. Shock wave peak pressure is nearly 1000X greater than the peak pressure in ultrasound waves.
How does LI-EWST work?
The peak pressure exerts direct mechanical stress. This shear stress sets off a cascade of wound healing responses that induces neovascularization and angiogenesis (formation of new blood vessels) to restore better blood flow and natural function to the treatment site.
