Nitric Oxide - Vascular Effects
Nitric Oxide increases blood flow Dilates arteries, capillaries Dilates veins, lymphatics Mediator of angiogenesis
and other growth factors Reduced platelet aggregation
Why is Nitric Oxide So Important?
Red blood cells squeezing through capillary
Capillaries in extremities are size of a single RBC Pre-capillary sphincters can constrict
blood flow into capillaries High cholesterol and diabetes
contribute to Endothelial dysfunction Blood vessel narrowing and reduced
elasticity leading to hypertension High levels of blood glucose
Reduce availability of nitric oxide
Nitric Oxide reduces pain Direct mediator of the analgesic
effect of morphine Indirect Reduces hypoxia, ischemia Delivers nutrients to nerves Reduces inflammation,
swelling impinging on nerves
Nitric Oxide – Pain Relief
Conditions that can cause painful circulatory problems
Metabolic Conditions (Diabetes, Hypothyroidism) Vascular disease – PVD, PAD, Intermittent Claudication Alcoholism Cancer (Chemotherapy-related) Drugs (Statins, antibiotics, antivirals) Anemias Vitamin deficiencies (B12, Folate, Magnesium) Raynauds Syndrome/Scleroderma Poisoning from toxins (Lead, Mercury, Agent Orange)

Chronic Patients: Patients with diabetes, PVD, high cholesterol or high
blood pressure will require lifetime use – as theses underlying conditions cause circulation to be poor in the extremities
Overuse injuries will continue to re-occur unless the patient modifies their activities
Acute Injuries/Wounds: Typically do not require lifetime use – clinical
treatments are sufficient to resolve most issues Chemotherapy Patients:
May require ongoing Anodyne® treatments depending on the severity of damage, and the length of condition

Anodyne Therapy is cleared for increasing local circulation and reducing pain and . . . Wounds need adequate blood supply,
oxygen and nutrients Many wounds are very painful.
