Take a deep dive into the world of microcirculation

microcirculation
The vital role of microcirculation

This microcirculatory system does more than sustain life — it tells a story of health, recovery, and the body’s remarkable ability to heal.

Validating the effectiveness of hyperbaric oxygen therapy with TcpO2

Estimates for the HBOT device market predict that the sector will more or less double between the years 2022 and 2030 — with wound healing being the dominant application.

Iontophoresis

When combined with technologies like laser Doppler perfusion monitoring (LDPM) or laser speckle contrast imaging (LSCI), iontophoresis provides detailed insights into how the microcirculation reacts to drugs.

Skin perfusion pressure — SPP

Not all patients are the same, toe pressure, for example, isn’t feasible for a person whose toes have been amputated. For patients with edema, callouses, or wounds on the sole or plantar region, SPP is the most applicable means for measuring the microcirculation.

Session #4: How to incorporate microvascular measurement into the clinical pathway

In session four, Dr. Chris Manu (MD, FRCP) talks about how he and his team have adapted their ways of working to include microcirculation measurements, resulting in a significantly lower 6-month amputation rate than the national average, despite treating a patient cohort with more severe conditions.
