Apparatus and process for producing CO
View Patent ↗The present invention provides an apparatus for producing medical foam for wound care or hair stimulation. The apparatus includes a foam generation unit having a fluid reservoir, a fluid delivery line and a foam generation tip. The apparatus also includes a compressed gas unit having at least one container of compressed gas, a source of electric power, and a gas regulator valve. A supply of wound care or hair stimulating solution is communicably connected to the foam generation tip such that when the apparatus is operated medical foam is produced by the foam generator tip.
1. A method of making a CO 2 enriched medical therapy solution comprising the steps of: providing a portable compressed CO 2 unit adapted for selective attachment of a compressed gas cylinder containing compressed CO 2 thereto; selectively securing the compressed gas cylinder containing compressed CO 2 to the compressed CO 2 unit; providing a reservoir with a medical therapy solution; communicably interconnecting the reservoir with the compressed CO 2 unit; initiating the compressed CO 2 unit to deliver compressed CO 2 from the compressed gas cylinder and draw the medical therapy solution from the reservoir to generate a CO 2 enriched medical therapy solution; and forcing the compressed CO 2 from the compressed gas cylinder through a membrane to lift the CO 2 enriched medical therapy solution outward from the membrane and project the CO 2 enriched medical therapy solution for treatment.
