No Contraindications
SofPulse has no contraindications. The FDA label has indicated use, warnings and precautions (each is of a lesser concern down to precautions)
-
Indications: Adjunctive use in the palliative treatment of postoperative pain and edema in the superficial soft tissue. SofPulse is not indicated as a substitute for treatment of deep tissues such as internal organs.
-
Warnings: Be sure to ask the patient about possible implants before deciding to use SofPulse. If the patient has implanted leads or an implant containing lead, tPEMF therapy should not be used, even if the implant has been turned off. Examples of implanted systems that may contain lead include cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators, cochlear implants, bone growth stimulators, deep brain stimulators, spinal cord stimulators, and other nerve stimulators.
-
Precautions: Should not be used during pregnancy or over the joints of skeletally immature patients. The long-term biological effects of pulsed electromagnetic energy are not known at this time.
Clinician Frequently Asked Questions
By emitting electric pulses, the Endonovo tPEMF products create an electromagnetic field which evenly penetrate both soft and hard body tissue around the target area. This electromagnetic field causes a chemical cascade, which activates the Nitric Oxide cycle. Nitric Oxide is a key molecule in healing. The compound is released when we exercise, and when we are injured, for the body to naturally repair itself. This natural process allows patients to get back to life faster with less use of narcotics.
tPEMF increases Nitric Oxide production to help speed healing of soft and hard tissues--that includes skin, tendons, ligaments, bones and organs. The specific ratio of frequency to burst width used by the device has been found to be the most effective at delivering the amount of current that is like what is already used by the body. More is not always better, and too much Nitric Oxide production can slow healing. When choosing a tPEMF device, it is good to know that more power is not correlated with faster healing.
In general, tPEMF can be used to speed healing, reduce inflammation, and lower pain levels. For any kind of orthopedic injury or surgery, the tPEMF device is a great tool to use in the recovery stage. The field penetrates clothing, bandages, and casts to reach all the tissue in the target area.

There are three products in our tPEMF product line: SofPulse, WoundPulse and OrthoHalo. You can select the product that will help you to achieve your patient care goals. All of our tPEMF devices are portable, easy to use and can be used in your healthcare facility and in the home environment.
We offer two settings for your device. One is an auto setting and the other is manual. We recommend that you use the Endonovo tPEMF for 15 minutes at a time. The device will shut off after 15 minutes- regardless of which mode you are using. The timer will not need to be set and the device will automatically turn off after the treatment is completed.
The primary difference between the settings is that with the manual setting you will need to remember to turn the device on for therapy while the auto setting provides treatment on a pre-programmed cycle.
Physicians can determine the severity of an issue and are generally able to pinpoint the specific area in the body that needs treatment. They work with the patient directly and advise them on the most effective treatment plans. Often the SofPulse is a part of an integrated multi-modality treatment plan. Patients benefit from visiting their physicians on a regular basis, getting assessments on their progress and up-to-date advice on continued treatment with the SofPulse device.

It is always best to refer to our Clinical Use Guide or Patient Use Guide before beginning treatment. SofPulse can be used through clothing, dressings and casts. It is recommended that the device be removed before showering/bathing.
Treatment will vary by injury, seriousness of the injury and whether the device is being used for condition is chronic or degenerative conditions. Treatments are 15 minutes and the number of times per day will vary by condition.
In general, we recommend that you start with a loading dose of two to four 15-minute treatments per day for acute and chronic or degenerative conditions.
For acute conditions (such as post-surgical treatment or recovery from a trauma), we recommend that you continue two to four treatments per day for the first week or so and then taper off for the next seven to 10 days or until the condition is fully healed.
For chronic or degenerative conditions, we recommend that you continue with two to four treatments per day for two to four weeks and monitor the patient until you see improved mobility and less pain response. Again, you can taper down to one or two treatments per day or even one to three treatments per week.
Ultimately, you want to consider that the SofPulse is catalyzing the anti-inflammatory cascade as well as accelerating the body’s own healing properties. We rely on physicians to assess the patient and to work with the pet owner on the best treatment protocols for each case.

There are several different types of breast-related cosmetic surgery including breast lift (Matsopexy), breast augmentation and breast reduction. A breast lift is when the excess skin is removed and the surrounding tissues are tightened to raise and firm the breast. Breast augmentation surgery involves the placement of implants to enhance the size of your breasts or to restore volume after dramatic weight loss or pregnancy. Breast reduction is performed to reduce the overall size and alleviate the discomfort associated with very large breasts. Regardless of which procedure you are considering, you will likely experience post-procedure pain.
These procedures are most commonly done in the outpatient setting allowing a patient to return home several hours after surgery. In this case you will face the challenge of severe discomfort while trying to get back to your daily life. The most common method of controlling discomfort is through the use of narcotic medication. Driving, taking care of family and other activities can be difficult while under the influence of narcotics. There are many side effects including nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, vomiting, dehydration, etc.
With Endonovo's tPEMF therapy, there is an improved way to manage the discomfort and help you recover from your breast surgery faster, without side effects.
• Reduce discomfort
• Increase daily function
• Faster and more comfortable surgical recovery
The Endonovo tPEMF products can markedly increase blood flow and tissue oxygenation, which improves the overall tissue health and reduces pain associated with lack of sufficient oxygen. We often hear reports from clinicians that their patients relax as soon as they start their treatments with the tPEMF. With the many healing benefits that the tPEMF offers, this is not surprising.

Unlike prescription drugs or narcotic painkillers, no side effects have been reported with the use of tPEMF therapy. Since tPEMF therapy increases circulation, while not likely, some patients may feel a subtle warming or tingling sensation.
Narcotic painkillers and prescription anti-inflammatory medications can result in vomiting, diarrhea, dehydration, bleeding of the stomach, severe drowsiness, constipation, and many other adverse side effects. With all treatments performed to date, there are no adverse events. And because SofPulse minimizes the requirement for prescription medication, there are reduced risks of addiction or overdose.
With tPEMF therapy, the body does not respond to the low energy signal unless there is inflamed tissue so there is no risk of overdose.
Study Design
• Double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized study
• 24 patients undergoing breast reduction surgery
• Pain levels measured by VAS and narcotic use recorded
• Wound exudates analyzed for interleukin (IL) 1ß, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-a, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), or fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-2 concentrations
Results
• 57% decrease in mean pain scores at one hour (p<0.01)
• 300% decrease in mean pain scores at 5 hours (p<0.001)
• 2.2-fold reduction in narcotic use in active patients (p=0.002)
• Mean IL-1ß concentration in wound exudates of treated patients was 275% lower (p<0.001)
• No significant difference in TNF-a, VEGF, or FGF-2 concentrations
Conclusion
Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy significantly reduced postoperative pain and narcotic use in the immediate postoperative period. The reduction of IL-1ß in the wound exudate supports a mechanism that may involve manipulation of the dynamics of endogenous IL-1ß in the wound bed by means of a pulsed electromagnetic field effect on nitric oxide signaling, which could impact the speed and quality of wound repair.

This type of cosmetic surgery includes any type of procedure that removes excess fat and skin from the body to create a profile that is smoother and firmer. Whether you are considering a tummy tuck (Abdominoplasty), arm lift, liposuction, fat grafting or body contouring after major weight loss, you will likely experience post procedure pain and swelling. In general, patients treated after bariatric surgeries complain about the pain of surgery whereas liposuction patients are more concerned with swelling.
Successful liposuction depends on many factors; one being how the body repairs the tissue around the procedure area. Most body procedures are done in the outpatient setting allowing patients to go home several hours after surgery. In this case you will face the challenge of managing pain and swelling while trying to get back to your daily life. The most common method of controlling discomfort is through the use of narcotic medication. There are many side effects including nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, vomiting, dehydration, etc.

• Non-significant decrease (8%) in mean pain threshold vs. baseline for active cohort.
• Significant decrease (26%) in mean pain threshold vs. baseline for cohort (p<0.001)
• Mean pain threshold was reduced by nearly 3x more in sham cohort vs. active cohort
• Mean edema increase in sham cohort was 1.7x greater than the active cohort at 225 minutes.
• Pain threshold was reduced by approximately two-fold at 360 min, compared with approximately three-fold for SofPulse at 225 minutes.
Conclusion
The results show that the SofPulse had a significant effect on pain and edema in an animal model which is routinely employed as an accurate predictor of the effect of anti-inflammatory drugs and physical modalities on humans.

There is a medical and a regulatory basis for the tPEMF products sealed case. As a condition for clearing the tPEMF as a medical device, the FDA required that it be able to deliver its patented, therapeutic waveform consistently over its entire design life of the product. Sealing all operating components inside the case—the applicator connections to the circuit board, signal generator, microprocessor, power supply and the battery—provided the FDA with the required assurance of signal integrity. Breaking the case seal for any reason renders the device non-compliant with the conditions of its 510(k) clearance.
Facial cosmetic surgery is performed to balance and better proportion the appearance of the face. This type of cosmetic surgery may include chin surgery, nose surgery, eye surgery, facial implants, fat grafting or a full face lift. Regardless of which procedure you are considering, you will likely experience severe swelling and discomfort.
Swelling can be controlled with prescription drugs, ice and compression garments. These are often needed for a prolonged period of time and may be difficult to use on a daily basis. The most common method of controlling discomfort is through the use of narcotic medication. Returning to work and daily life is difficult while taking narcotics Narcotics have many side effects including nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, vomiting, dehydration, etc.
With Endonovo's tPEMF therapy, there is an improved way to manage the swelling and help you return to daily life, without side effects, garments and bandages.
Improved appearance faster
Less medication
Faster and more comfortable surgical recovery
Study Design
• Double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized study
• Validated model of inflammation 11, 12
• 32 male Sprague-Dawley rats (200-250g), separated into two cohorts: SofPulse and Sham (originally referred to as Torino and Torino Sham).
• Paw edema was induced by intraplantar injection of 0.1ml of 2% carrageenan in saline13
• Edema was measured, after 225 minutes, with a water displacement plethysmometer
Results
• Non-significant decrease (8%) in mean pain threshold vs. baseline for active cohort.
• Significant decrease (26%) in mean pain threshold vs. baseline for cohort (p<0.001)
• Mean pain threshold was reduced by nearly 3x more in sham cohort vs. active cohort
