Conservative Management for Delayed Unions and Non-Unions (LIPUS & PEMF)Bone healing can be unpredictable, with some fractures leading to delayed unions or non-unions. Low-Intensity Pulsed Ultrasound (LIPUS) and Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (PEMF) therapy offer non-invasive solutions for these conditions, avoiding surgical risks. LIPUS utilizes sound waves to enhance cellular activity, vascularization, and callus formation, thereby accelerating bone regeneration. PEMF…Bone healing can be unpredictable, with some fractures leading to delayed unions or non-unions. Low-Intensity Pulsed Ultrasound (LIPUS) and Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (PEMF) therapy offer non-invasive solutions for these conditions, avoiding surgical risks. LIPUS utilizes sound waves to enhance cellular activity, vascularization, and callus formation, thereby accelerating bone regeneration. PEMF therapy applies electromagnetic pulses to stimulate osteoblast function, improve blood flow, and modulate inflammation, essential for bone healing. Both therapies are effective in reducing healing time and improving outcomes. Igea Medical provides home-use LIPUS and PEMF devices, facilitating patient compliance and consistent treatment. By choosing between LIPUS and PEMF, based on fracture type and patient needs, optimal non-surgical healing can be achieved.
