The wound must be classified by the healthcare provider as non-healing, chronic, and unresponsive to traditional treatment methods.

You will need to provide documentation of medical necessity, including the healthcare provider's prescription and documentation of the patient's wound status and response to traditional treatment methods.

The recommended frequency of dressing change depends on the specific wound type and severity. It's best to consult with a healthcare professional for personalized instructions and to monitor the wound's progress during treatment. However, as a general rule, changing the dressing every 2-3 days is typically sufficient for most wounds. Be sure to thoroughly cleanse the wound and apply a new dressing after using the EMS device.

EMS (Electrical Muscle Stimulation) devices have been found to be effective at enhancing the healing of wounds by increasing blood flow and promoting tissue regeneration through the application of low-level electrical current. The beneficial effects of EMS may also include reducing inflammation, decreasing pain, and improving muscle function. EMS devices can be used on both acute and chronic wounds, such as pressure ulcers, venous ulcers, and diabetic foot ulcers. They are typically applied directly to the wound site, or placed adjacent to it, and are relatively easy to use. Some EMS devices require a prescription from a healthcare provider, while others can be purchased over-the-counter. It is important to follow instructions and safety guidelines when using EMS devices in wound care to avoid any potential complications.
