Science of MIST Therapy

Barriers to Healing

Not all wounds move through the healing process as expected.  In nonhealing wounds, progression stalls and standard of care treatments become ineffective due to a number of factors as noted in the chart below.  MIST Therapy® removes many of these barriers and stimulates the cells to accelerate healing.

Impact of MIST Therapy

MIST Therapy impacts wound healing in a number of ways, as noted in the chart above.  These factors can be summarized into two categories:

  • Removal of Barriers to Healing
    • Reduced bacteria/biofilm (21,23)
    • Reduced Inflammation(18)
  • Active Cell Stimulation
    • Increased blood flow (vasodilitation)(26)
    • Increased angiogenesis(17)
    • Early release of growth factors(2)
    • Increased collagen deposition(17)

All in a noncontact, nonthermal, painless manner.
