BioElectronics Corporation Announces the Publication of a Canine Arthritis Study
Forty-nine animals completed the study. No negative side effects were reported. Average subjective discomfort scores for the treatment group (N=26) were reduced from 4.26 to 2.31 (45%) compared to no improvement in the placebo group (N=23) over the study period. Average PROM scores increased by 5.51 (4.59--6.23) degrees relative to the placebo group. Ninety-six percent of the treatment group showed either increased PROM or improved behavioral changes or both compared to 4% for the placebo group. Most changes occurred within the first 8 days of treatment.

A randomized, blinded, placebo-controlled 14-day study of 60 dogs having prior veterinary-diagnosis OA in at least one limb joint. - BioElectronics’ Model 088 device was secured near the cervical region of the dog’s spine.
- Osteoarthritis is the most common type of arthritis in dogs and is the most common source of chronic pain in older dogs.
- Armed with these published results, BioElectronics Corporation will pursue appropriately qualified distribution partners to market and sell its unique pulsed shortwave device into the veterinary medicine market.
