Abstract:
Topical applications that provide a nitric oxide therapy to a surface are provided. Systems for providing a topical nitric oxide therapy can comprise a nitrite medium in a first container, the nitrite medium comprising about 3% of a nitrite component by weight. The system comprises an acidic medium in a second container, the acidic medium comprising about 9% by weight of one or more acidic reactants. The nitrite medium and the acidic medium are configured to be combined to form a nitric oxide topical medium producing nitric oxide suitable for topical application and suitable for administering nitric oxide therapy wherein a therapeutically effective amount of the nitric oxide topical medium is applied to a treatment surface suitable for receiving nitric oxide therapy, whereby the application of the therapeutically effective amount is adapted to deliver a dose of nitric oxide at the treatment surface of a patient.
Abstract:
An apparatus for controlled delivery of nitric oxide. A pump draws air through an activated carbon filter and into a reaction chamber. The generation of nitric oxide occurs in the reaction chamber. A second pump draws the gas in the reaction chamber through a calcium hydroxide filter and delivers the nitric oxide through an orifice, or aperture, that controls the flow of nitric oxide delivered. The nitric oxide is filtered through a calcium hydroxide filter just prior to being made available for various nitric oxide therapies. Topical applications that provide a nitric oxide therapy to a surface are also provided.
