Sustained Acoustic Medicine for Osteoarthritis Pain

Обзор

The purpose of this study is to compare Sustained Acoustic Medicine treatment to topical pain relief gel for the symptomatic management of osteoarthritis. The study will measure pain and function scores for patients undergoing treatment.

  Patients apply the SAM Ultrasonic Diathermy Device daily for 1-4 hours of continuous therapeutic ultrasound at 3 megahertz(MHz) frequency and 0.132 Watts/cm@ with 2.5% Diclofenac patches.
• Препарат 2.5% Diclofenac Patches
  Topical pain relief-gel worn for 4 hours at least 5 days a week via SAM patch.
