August 3rd, 2023 -- Providence, RI -- Amputee Coalition; BI Medical's Dr. Jarrell Presents Solutions abating Prosthetic Limb & Skin and Odor Issues.
BI Medical, LLC, the pioneering company behind The Liner Wand® w/Apocrine®, will be presenting at the annual Amputee Coalition Conference. With a focus on understanding the sources of odor from prosthetic liners, BI Medical will showcase their game-changing chemistry specifically designed for deep cleaning and odor prevention.
Human bodies naturally produce moisture and bacteria, often resulting in unwanted odors accumulating within prosthetic liners. BI Medical, through extensive research and development, has identified the root causes of these issues and created targeted solutions.
Dr. John Jarrell, Founder of BI Medical, will lead the presentation. He remarks, "Our deep-cleaning innovation represents a significant stride forward in prosthetic liner cleaning and odor prevention. With its remarkable effectiveness against unwanted odor, we are empowering amputees to experience comfort and confidence like never before."
BI Medical, LLC is a dedicated team of multidisciplinary professionals passionate about bringing innovative solutions to the limb-loss community. In the U.S. alone, there are currently more than 4.2 million amputees. With the prevalence of diabetes and trauma incidents increasing, this number grows significantly each day, with more than 500 new amputees taking their first steps.
Over 75% of lower limb amputees experience a high prevalence of skin irritation, infection, and embarrassing odor. These skin problems are caused by mechanical forces, allergic reactions, and fungal and bacterial infections, which can be exacerbated by heat and perspiration buildup. For many, these issues are chronic and impact their ability to return to normal social engagement or work activities.
BI Medical, LLC has developed The Liner Wand®, with their patented Apocrine hygiene technology, as a standard of care for amputee hygiene management. This groundbreaking product is set to revolutionize the approach to limb care, enhancing comfort and quality of life for individuals with prosthetic limbs.
