BioElectronics Corporation Announces Introduction Of Improved Foot And Ankle Products

FREDERICK, Md., March 8 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- BioElectronics Corporation, announced today that it is introducing its improved foot and ankle products.

BioElectronics Corp. CEO Andrew J. Whelan commented, “We have taken proven pulsed electromagnetic therapy down to a small microchip and embedded it into an affordable, soft, conformable, easy to apply foam patch for the treatment of inflammatory foot and ankle conditions. Lighter, thinner, and easier to affix, ActiPatch is a major leap forward in podiatric medicine. The new medium (8.1 cm X 5.8 cm) and large (8.9 cm X 8.9 cm) rectangular patches provide significant flexibility for treatment whether embedded in a brace or simply wrapped for extended convenient therapy. We will be initiating Canadian and European sales during the second quarter. We have also begun the process for multiple Investigational Review Board approvals for clinical trials to obtain additional US FDA market clearances.
