Patent ID: 8876749

Claim:
An apparatus for producing medical foam for use in at least one of wound and ulceration treatment and hair growth stimulation, said apparatus comprising: a portable, compressed CO 2 , unit, said CO 2 unit including at least one container of compressed CO 2 connected to a gas delivery line, said CO 2 unit also including a source of electric power, a gas regulator valve and an electronic actuator for selectively initiating and ceasing a flow of said compressed CO 2 through said gas delivery line; a foam generation tip including two inlets and an outlet, the two inlets include an air hose inlet and a foam solution delivery line, said air hose inlet directly connected to said gas delivery line for passage of the compressed CO 2 from the CO 2 unit to the foam generation tip; a reservoir containing at least one of a wound therapy and hair stimulation solution said reservoir directly connected to the foam generation tip via the foam solution delivery line for the passage of the solution from the reservoir to the foam generation tip; and whereby initiating said electronic actuator causes compressed CO 2 to be delivered through said gas delivery line to said an hose inlet of the foam generation tip, which CO 2 draws said solution from said reservoir into said foam solution delivery line of the foam generation tip such that said foam generation tip generates a CO 2 enriched medical foam for passing through said outlet for topical application of said CO 2 , enriched medical foam onto a wound or onto a surface of the body to stimulate hair growth.
