Abstract
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.

A method of medical treatment, said method comprising:
- providing a portable compressed CO2 unit adapted for selective attachment of a compressed gas cylinder thereto;
- selectively securing the compressed gas cylinder containing compressed CO2 to the compressed CO2 unit;
- providing a reservoir with a medical therapy solution;
- communicably interconnecting the reservoir with the compressed CO2 unit;
- initiating the compressed CO2 unit to deliver compressed CO2 from the compressed gas cylinder to impart negative pressure on the medical therapy solution in the reservoir such that the medical therapy solution is drawn from the reservoir for mixing with the compressed CO2 to generate a CO2 enriched medical therapy solution;
- and
- applying the CO2 enriched medical therapy solution for medical treatment.
A CO2 enriched medical therapy solution made in accordance with the method comprising the steps of:
- providing a portable compressed CO2 unit adapted for selective attachment of a compressed gas cylinder thereto;
- selectively securing the compressed gas cylinder containing compressed CO2 to the compressed CO2 unit;
- providing a reservoir with a medical therapy solution;
- communicably interconnecting the reservoir with the compressed CO2 unit;
- and
- initiating the compressed CO2 unit to deliver compressed CO2 from the compressed gas cylinder and draw the medical therapy solution from the reservoir to generate a CO2 enriched medical therapy solution.
