PROVEN NON-INVASIVE TREATMENT FOR ARTHRITIS OF THE HAND AND WRIST
WHY BIONICARE?
BioniCare is a pulsed electrical signal delivered via a conductive glove and electrodes specifically designed for the treatment of osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis of the hand, thumb and wrist.
• Non-invasive
• Non-drug
• Conservative treatment
UNLIKE ALL OTHERS STIMULATORS:
The unique BioniCare signal should not be confused withother types of stimulators that only block the body’s painsignals and do not improve function or reduce stiffness.

BIONICARE SCIENCE
• Arthritis is characterized by the degradation of the joint by inflammatory cytokines.
• Scientific research supports the hypothesis that electrical signals can increase aggrecan and Type II collagen synthesis and decrease inflammatory cytokines involved in the inflammation of arthritis.1,2
• The BioniCare signal has been proven to reduce pain and medications, increase function, defer surgery and improve the overall condition of synovial joints.5
• The BioniCare Hand System signal has been proven to decrease the pain and symptoms of osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis of the hand.3,4
FEATURES: • Compact, touch-screen device
• Easy to apply, reusable electrodes
• Comfortable glove
• Rechargeable battery
• Can be worn while sleeping or during the day
• Bluetooth enabled compliance reporting

Indications• The BioniCare Hand System, Model BIO-2000, is indicated for use
as an adjunctive therapy in osteoarthritis of the hand to reduce the level of pain and stiffness and to improve the function of the hand.
• The BioniCare Hand System, Model BIO-2000, is indicated for use as an adjunctive therapy in reducing the level of pain and stiffness associated with pain from rheumatoid arthritis of the hand.
Contraindications• Do not use the BioniCare Hand System for any electrode
placement that applies current to the carotid sinus (neck) region.• Do not use the BioniCare Hand System for any electrode
placement that causes current to flow transcerebrally (through the head).
• Patients with demand type cardiac pacemakers should consult with their physician prior to use of this system.
• Do not use the BioniCare Hand System whenever pain syndromes are undiagnosed, until etiology is established.
Warnings• The BioniCare Hand System must be used only as prescribed and
applied only to the hand.• The safety of the BioniCare Hand System for use during pregnancy
has not been established.
• The BioniCare Hand System is not effective for pain of central origin (including headache).
• Use only under the continued supervision of a physician.• Keep out of reach of children.• Electronic monitoring equipment (such as ECG monitors and
ECG alarms) may not operate properly when the BioniCare Hand Device is in use.
PRECAUTIONS• Isolated cases of skin irritation may occur at the site of electrodes
and conductive glove placement following long-term application.• Effectiveness is highly dependent upon patient selection by a
physician qualified in the management of arthritis.REFERENCE1. Peter A. Holt, MD; Tuna Ozyurekoglu, MD; Shaili Deveshwar, MD;
