In clinical trials to determine the efficacy of Sportvis™, it was proven that the majority of patients with either acute Ankle Sprains or Tennis Elbow returned to daily activities and sports 6 days faster. Many of the characteristic signs of pain and swelling were adequately controlled after only 8 days, Subsequent trials carried out at a 2-year follow-up period demonstrate that 70% of patients treated with Sportvis™ had no recurrence of the injury and had significantly fewer days missing from sport versus the placebo group.
The benefits of Sportvis™ can be summarised as follows:
- Accelerated healing time: Healing time was reduced by up to 6 days as seen in the published clinical trial over an average recovery period of 17 days
- Limit Pain and Inflammation: Sodium hyaluronate has the ancillary effect of reducing pain and limiting inflammation as it hydrates the damaged tissue and regulates cell migration
- Improved Quality of Healing: By directly targeting the torn fibres, it actively promotes healing to help restore both structure and functionality in the tendon or ligament, strengthening the joint and reducing the formation of scar tissue
- Reduction of ankle sprain recurrences: Scar tissue is weakened tissue that is extremely susceptible to tears therefore reduced scar tissue means a significantly reduced risk of recurrence of the sprain
Other benefits:
- In clinical trials, 70% Lesser number of days missing from sport
- No systemic side effects
- No doping effect
SportVis™ and R.I.C.E. Standard of Care
SportVis™ was designed to be used concurrently with the R.I.C.E. (rest, ice compression and elevation) standard of care. Using SportVis™ together with R.I.C.E. will allow the patient to regain range of motion faster and achieve optimal results.
