Key Attributes of Pulsar II™ Wound Irrigation
Did you know that Pulsar II™ Wound Irrigation / Selective Hydro Mechanical Debridement System is CE marked, FDA cleared and registered in over 50 countries.
Selective hydro mechanical debridement rids the wound of devitalized tissue without disrupting the underlying healthy tissue.
Using internationally recognized pulse strength pressure of 15Psi maximizes wound cleansing, avoids driving bacteria and bio-load further into the wound and minimizes patient discomfort.
No suction. No Touch. No cross contamination. No fluid discharge lost.
Pulsar II™ debridement system is totally disposable as all the fluid is contained within the collection bag which has granules that neutralise any harmful bio-load that has been removed.
Pulsar II™ Wound Irrigation delivers chosen solution to the wound in a pulsating manner that dislodges bacteria, non viable tissue and debris from the wound bed.
The entire selective hydro mechanical debridement system is disposable and all fluids are captured and totally contained in custom designed wound irrigation bags.
Once the wound bed has been treated with a course of Pulsar II™, you can expect to see Granulation tissue appear enabling clinical decisions to be made as to how to continue healing the wound.
At the completion of each irrigation debridement treatment granulation tissue begins to heal the wound.
What to expect
What to expect in patient recovery and treatment after using Pulsar II™ Wound Irrigation.
Day 1
Starts to reduce unpleasant smells. Removes in excess of 80% bio-load including biofilm, slough, exudate and necrotic tissue. Leaves a cleaner looking wound.
Day 2
Foul odour should abate so wound will no longer smell. Again in excess of 80% of biofilm and bio-load is removed. First signs of the wound becoming uninstalled are apparent.
Day 3
Inflammation period is being pushed through and patient is feeling less pain. Wound is looking a lot cleaner due to in excess of 80% of biofilm and bio-load being removed on the two previous treatments. Often signs of granulation will be present enabling clinical decisions to be made such as negative pressure, dressings, skin graft etc. If not it may be necessary to carry on for another couple of days.
Product Features
Standard tip and flexible tunnel tip
Standard tip Delivers fluid to the wound bed in pulsating manner and enables caregiver to get very close (1cm away) to the wound for maximum results.
Removes after each treatment and is disposed of into the bag with the bio-load.
Flexible tunnel tip (only to be used by professionals). This is the only piece of the system that requires it to touch the patient as it is inserted into the tunnel wound (fistula).
The tunnel tip is easily attached to the Pulsar II™ Irrigator and is made of safe, soft PVC free tubing with graduation marks to ensure you are aware as to how deep the tip is being inserted.
Fluid delivered in a radial manner, ensuring the walls of fistula are efficiently debrided. Soft and flexible, never kinks – it will follow the tract.
Pulsar II™ Wound Irrigation Bags
Pulsar II™ offers a totally closed system by the use of irrigation bags designed for every part of the body in just two designs sacral/trunk/body and extremity/leg/arm, they totally seal off the wound making for a leak proof enclosed system for the pulsar II™ irrigator to deliver 3 litres of fluid to the wound site.
The irrigation bags have granules in the collection pouch that encapsulate and neutralise any harmful bacteria such as MRSA HIV Hepatitis.
The granules can absorb up to 5 litres of fluid.
Irrigator
Designed for peak performance, reliable operation and effective irrigation using selective hydra mechanical debridement.
Optimized pulse strength, pulse frequency and flow rate: Max pressure 15Psi, High speed flow rate up to 1200ML/M. 8Psi Low speed flow rate up to 600ML/M. 15Psi is the optimum pressure to remove non viable tissue without harming the viable tissue.
Ensures a clean environment for treatment of a wound anywhere.
No touch technique so less traumatic for the patient.
Proven clinical results.
What sets the Pulsar II™ system apart from other debridement methods
Pulsar II™ will never increase the size of the wound because it NEVER removes viable tissue.
Pulsar II™ removes in excess of 80% of biofilm and other bioload every three minute treatment.
Unlike most other treatments Pulsar does not need to be used by a trained member of staff, often is administered by patients family member (with prior instruction).
Pulsar II™ can be used in any setting, bedside, clinic, patients home, war zones, ambulance, doctor’s office E.R., SNF’s Hospice and long-term care facilities.
Safe totally enclosed system making it safe for patient, caregiver and surrounding areas.
With frequent use of Pulsar II™, the pulsating action of the fluid will help generate new granulation tissue.
Pulsar II™ Wound Irrigation Clinical Applications
Clinical Applications for the Advanced Pulsar II™ Wound Irrigation Debridement System…
- Diabetic Foot Ulcer
- Pressure Ulcer
- Other
- Venous Ulcer
- Burns
- Traumatic Wounds
Highly Effective
Pulsar II™ can effectively remove biofilm and other bio-load whilst preserving the healthy underlying tissue, at the same time the Pulsar II™ micro massages the capillaries with the pulsating action of the fluid stimulating new granulation tissue.
Removes over 80% of biofilm and other bio-load such as slough, exudate and even necrotic tissue each 3 minute treatment.
Irrigation bags offer a closed system that prevents splashing and eliminates the need for suction. This design also helps prevent cross-infection from airborne bacteria, ensuring safety for both the caregiver and the patient.
- Removes in excess of 80% of biofilm and Bio-load every 3 minute treatment using *15Psi to deliver fluid.
15psi is internationally recognized as the optimum pressure to remove biofilm and bio-load without driving bacteria into the wound.
- Totally portable and 100% disposable.
- No touch No Suction making for in most cases a pain free treatment.
- NEVER increases the size of the wound as removes non viable tissue only.
- Suitable for all wounds.
- Can be used anywhere, no special treatment area needed.
- Safe, closed system – protects care giver and facility.
- No time consuming clean-up necessary.
- 100% reimbursable from Medicare, using CPT Codes: 97597 & and 97598.
Better Patient Tolerance
One 3 minute debridement can remove in excess of 80% of biofilm and other bio-load without the frequent need of surgical debridement and most all cases the patient is free of pain.
100% portable and can be done anywhere – even in the patients own home by a family member (with prior instruction).
No touch and no suction required making for a pain free treatment. Each treatment takes only 3 minutes to deliver 3 litres of fluid to the wound.
Lower Healthcare Costs
Reduces the need for costly surgical procedures. Documented as cost effective when trialled against other treatment modalities.
Reduces the need for continued use of antibiotics. Reduces hospital re admissions by treating and eliminating wound infections.
More patients are able to be treated on a daily basis due to portability and reduced time per debridement. Patients can remain at home for treatment.
