March 28, 2023 – Vaporox, a Denver based medical device company, has received clearance from the US Food and Drug Administration for its next generation VHT-200 medical device system for healing chronic wounds, which are wounds that do not respond to conventional wound treatment, meeting a significant unmet medical need for millions of sufferers of diabetic foot ulcers.
Vaporox’s Vaporous Hyperoxia Therapy (VHT™) is a breakthrough technology that has been clinically validated as a safe and effective adjunct treatment for healing skin wounds.
The VHT-200 brings advanced wound care technology into the private practice setting. By delivering healing rates exceeding 80% for chronic wounds, the VHT-200 allows providers to deliver Advanced Wound Care in their practice.
VHT delivers a unique combination of elements that have been shown to accelerate healing: ultrasonic mist and concentrated oxygen. Vaporox’s patented and FDA-cleared delivery system for these elements promotes revascularization and tissue growth.
Three separate clinical studies and thousands of successfully billed commercial treatments have demonstrated that adding VHT to standard wound care consistently doubles or triples healing, delivering results in 20 weeks or less.
