Hydrogel Pads |
The wireless CareWear® control unit: rechargeable, reusable, and waterproof, the controller is pre-programmed to deliver the correct dosage of light therapy to every CareWear® Light Patch. Patented technology to ensure 100% calibration, accurate dosage. |
Deliver powerful LED light therapy in just 30 minutes. Available in several body-contouring shapes and sizes. Wavelengths: Red (640 nm) & Blue (450 nm) |
The light-guiding, adhesive hydrogel pads serve as carriers for the Light Patches. The different pad sizes are matched to the Light Patches. |
The CareWear® Light Starter Sets contain everything you need to get started, i.e. a control unit, light and hydrogel pads. Alternatively, you can also order the CareWear® single, duo or quad control units individually without the light and hydrogel pads required for operation. |
Award Winning
CareWear was recognized by the International Society for Optics and Photonics (SPIE) and the Internet of Things/ Wearable Technologies (IoT/WT) Innovation World Cup® for its product design, usability, innovation, and technology.
Flexible | CareWear®’s Light Patches are exceptionally thin and flexible, which allow maximum conformability to the body contours without detaching or breaking. This flexible adhesion minimizes optical reflection while maximizing penetration of the light into the tissues. |
Wearable | CareWear® has developed the first wearable PBM therapy patch that allows unrestrictive active movement by the user. A simple “stick, click and go” allows convenient application immediately post-injury, or for pre-activity muscle conditioning anywhere: on the road, at home, in the training room, or during competition. CareWear also offers convenient travel cases designed with functionality, durability and style, with secure controller placement as well as recessed areas for light patches and accessories. |
Reusable | CareWear® offers a complete charging solution for single or multiple controllers, using a standard 5V, 1A or 2A USB 2.0 charger for fast charging in any country. The CareWear® controller can be applied universally to any present or future light patch sizes. CareWear®’s light patches are economical since they can be used up to 40 times. The UV protected zip-lock pouches offer easy tracking of name, date and usage with easy storage in CareWear’s file box or travel cases. |
Ultra Thin | Lightweight and flexible for any body contour! CareWear® Light patches SuperFlex use a flexible ultra-thin multi-laminate structure consisting of a printed lamp laminated to a flexible circuit board, quantum dot film and hydrogel. The entire thickness is less than 0.04 inches (1 mm) allowing easy conformance to any body surface. |
Light-Weight | The CareWear® light patch and controller weigh in at a mere 1 to 1.75 oz. (30 to 50 grams) dependent on the size of the light patch. The hydrogel easily holds the lightweight patch and controller to the skin for full freedom of movement. |
3D Patch Design | Customized Body Coverage! CareWear light patches follow body contours for maximum movement Three-dimensional (3D) conformability is highly desirable for any wearable technology. CareWear® has developed multiple wearable light patches SuperFlex that follow the body contours and maximize movement without restriction. The use of extensive anthropometric data sets and clinical testing resulted in a family of light patches that were ‘best fit’ for applications from pain management to muscle recovery. CareWear® light patches can be mixed and matched or nested together for customized body coverage. |
Regulatory Compliance
CareWear® products are FDA Registered and include patented technology to ensure 100% calibration, accurate dosage,and regulatory compliance.
1500+ LEDs | Printed Light revolutionizes light delivery! Simultaneous delivery of multiple wavelengths with complete tissue coverage CareWear® and its partners have successfully designed Blue 450 nm Micro LEDs that are made into ink and printed on Roll-to-Roll Printing on 125 micron PET film into its flexible light patches. This new process revolutionizes light delivery and provides flexible printed light at significant power levels and efficiencies that are well suited for PhotoBioModulation (PBM) Red Light Therapy. Our light patches are made using 20 micron gallium nitride LEDs (3 times the size of a red blood cell) at a density of 25 LEDs per cm2. Our largest patches featured to 1500 LEDs. The light output is highly directional and similar to LASERs relative to their beam divergence. We are able to provide continuous outputs at an average of up to 2.5 mW/cm2 over the entire treatment surface and up to 7.5 mW/cm2 in pulsed modes in areas up to 56 cm2. |
Accurate Dose | Effective Results Every Time! Every CareWear® light patch is calibrated for treatment accuracy Each light patch contains a calibration memory chip that allows the CareWear® firefly controller to set the output treatment parameters for precise irradiance (mW/cm2) and fluence (J/cm2) ensuring effective results every time. The thousands of micro LEDs are evenly distributed throughout the patch providing uniform non-thermal and thermal effects as demonstrated in recent published human trials. |
100% Calibration | CareWear® has developed the first wearable PBM therapy patch that allows unrestrictive active movement by the user. A simple “stick, click and go” allows convenient application immediately post-injury, or for pre-activity muscle conditioning anywhere: on the road, at home, in the training room, or during competition. CareWear® also offers convenient travel cases designed with functionality, durability and style, with secure controller placement as well as recessed areas for light patches and accessories. |
Optical Hydrogel | Biocompatible and bacterial resistant adhesive! Medical grade hydrogel minimizes distortions CareWear® uses index-matching films, adhesives and hydrogel in its pads to minimize interface distortions that can increase reflection and refraction of the optical output. Our patches use medical grade hydrogel that is biocompatible, bacterial resistant and can be reused up to 20 times. |
Bluetooth® 4.1 | CareWear®’s controller contains a real time clock, high performance processor and an integrated Bluetooth® 4.1 radio to ensure IoT (Internet of Things) connectivity. This is being used in our clinical research with a CareWear® App to allow monitoring of device use to ensure compliance with treatment, and provide clinical and patch use information to the practitioner. |
65+ Patents | CareWear® has invested heavily in the development of a strategic patent portfolio encompassing substrates, devices and applications in key global markets. Patent claims are directed to clinical methods and device features such as dose control, printed LEDs, OLEDs, ultrasonic substrate design and manufacturing, app and cloud device interaction, and sensor technologies. CareWare Corp. has 67 issued patents with additional pending applications and divisional filings for significant long term protection and licensing opportunities. |
