Details

BioniCare is a non-invasive, non-drug treatment option for osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee. The BioniCare system provides an electrical signal that stimulates the joint tissue to reduce the pain and symptoms of arthritis and helps maintain the health of the knee joint. The arthritic joint has a diminished electrical signal which likely contributes to the deterioration of the joint. BioniCare is the first and only patented proprietary signal and system demonstrated to be safe and effective in multiple clinical studies.

Unlike all others

BioniCare’s patented signal was designed specifically for the treatment of pain and symptoms of knee OA and Hand RA. It is not to be confused with other stimulators, including a TENS device, that only provides temporary pain relief by blocking pain signals. The stimulation is subsensory—the patient does not feel the stimulation. It treats the underlying cause of the disease by stimulating the joint tissue and improving the overall health of the joint. It provides a slow-acting, but longer-lasting improvement in symptoms. The BioniCare system is clinically proven to improve the osteoarthritic knee, reduce pain and symptoms, and improve function in the rheumatoid hand.

Is it right for you?

BioniCare is a non-invasive, non-drug alternative for the treatment of osteoarthritis of the knee. It treats the underlying cause of the disease by stimulating the joint tissue and improving the overall health of the joint. It does not affect the gastrointestinal tract, kidneys or liver and does not carry the risk of infection. Patients using BioniCare report decreased pain, decreased joint stiffness, improved range of motion and often reduce their NSAID intake. BioniCare is a long-term solution for a degenerative (long-term) disease. After 2250 hours of use, the effect of the device is the same as a total knee replacement, without the risks of surgery. The only risk of the BioniCare device is a possible skin irritation from the use of the electrodes.

Additionally, since the BioniCare device is integrated into the OActive “unloader” brace, the brace will reduce the impact of weight bearing and reduce the patient’s pain. This helps get the patient back to activities of daily living and potentially enables them to participate in an exercise program with minimal discomfort. The brace provides an immediate benefit while the BioniCare provides a slower-acting, longer-lasting effect. The combination of these two products offers maximum benefit with minimal risk.

Bionicare

NON-INVASIVE ALTERNATIVE TO TOTAL KNEE REPLACEMENT SURGERY.

This treatment involves almost no risk and has been clinically proven to reduce the pain and symptoms of osteoarthritis. Studies show that BioniCare provides the same benefits as a total knee replacement without the risk of surgery. In an ongoing clinical study, it has been shown that when worn with a brace, patients who wore the BioniCare Knee System for an average of about 500 hours and 3 months had effects equal to a total knee replacement for pain and symptoms and Physician’s Global Score (a measure of disease severity). When worn without a brace (in a Night-Wrap), patients required an average of 2250 hours and 11-12 months to achieve effects equal to a total knee replacement.
