Sky Medical develops bioelectronic devices to treat a wide range of acute and chronic circulatory conditions.
About us
Sky Medical develops bioelectronic devices integrated with OnPulse neuromodulation technology to prevent and treat a wide range of acute and chronic circulatory conditions (e.g. to prevent venous thromboembolism (VTE), to prevention and reduction of edema after surgery, to heal venous and arterial leg ulcers as well as chronic wounds, and speed-up recovery time for high-performance athletes. After conducting further clinical research, OnPulse is now being used in hospitals and in community care centers to accelerate patient recovery after surgery and to accelerate healing of chronic venous and diabetic ulcers. Devices are also used by Olympic and USA professional athletes such as the US Olympic Hockey team and NFL, MLS, MLB, NBA, D1 NCAA teams, and NHL clubs to accelerate post training and post-match recovery. Teams include but are not limited to AC Milan, Chelsea, West Ham, Everton football teams, Golden State Warriors, New England Patriots and the San Francisco 49ers. By stimulating the peroneal nerve using neuromodulation, we believe we can create a natural effect within the body that will improve function and quality of life for patients.

Did you know❓ • Oedema and pain following lower limb orthopaedic surgery are closely interlinked phenomena that significantly impact patient recovery (Wickline et al., 2023). • Oedema exerts pressure on surrounding tissues and nerve endings, amplifying pain through mechanical and chemical stimulation of nociceptors (Woolf, 2011). • Effective management of post-surgical oedema is therefore crucial to mitigate pain and enhance functional recovery (Moore et al., 2015).
