3 I NEEDED TO KNOW WHY... I have become obsessed with precision and how we manage delivery of energy to the body as a means to understand and aid recovery. Nik Rose Inventor This was the question which Nik Rose kept asking himself as he lay in a hospital bed fifteen years ago recovering from a shattered patella. Once admitted, he was tended to every two hours with ice packs and clingfilm. And yet, no one had an answer to his question beyond the ubiquitous First Aid protocol Rest Ice Compression Elevation. These observations and ruminations led inventor Nik Rose to begin his exploration to better understand cooling, warming and compression as aids to rehabilitation. I have always had huge respect for how the human body works but we need intelligent technology to work with it. When I began to investigate this area there was simply no data. This was particularly true in relation to how much cooling, warming or compression should be delivered and when during rehabilitation. From his own experience and extensive research and development, Nik Rose has created. The device, invented by Nik Rose, provides rehabilitation professionals with a toolkit delivering temperatures anywhere between 6 and 40 c alongside compression of up to 75 mmhg to accelerate soft tissue repair. Whilst there are other machines available which deliver cold, warming and compression nothing in the market did all three efficiently and, more importantly, there was no intelligent control and feedback. 4 is the only device to provide intermittent temperature in a repeatable and controllable way from extreme cold to heat in a matter of seconds under independently controlled constant compression. I have become obsessed with precision and how we manage delivery of energy to the body as a means to understand and aid recovery. By delivering hot or cold in a controllable way, the energy sent to the body from the system and to the system from the body is measurable. Our toolkit gives users the opportunity to understand how energy is accepted and rejected by the body during recovery from an injury or surgery both during the more receptive acute phase and the subsequent defensive repair phase. This means we can quantify recovery. Having developed this data tracking mechanism, Nik Rose hopes that medical professionals and physiotherapists will use to analyse data and build up a body of research. By using the tangible data from our device, I really hope professionals will be able to create a better understanding to deal with a patient s recovery depending on where he/she is in the recovery phase and when protocols should be adjusted for maximum efficacy and efficiency. In this way, we can drive clinical practice forward. 5

4 PRODUCTS Our products are not designed to be the limiting factor. is a toolkit for delivering thermal energy and compression to the body with maximum efficiency. Control All the variables are intelligently controlled with precision and accuracy to respond to the body s requirements. We sense and control to 0.1 C and +/10 mmhg every second. Contrast With this level of control we can deliver temperatures to the body between 6 C and 40 c, either intermittently or continuously over a period of 30 minutes. Compression Our patented Therapy Packs provide true clinical compression with unrivalled conformability across the entire treatment area. The dual layered design ensures pressure can be actively adjusted every second, either continuously or intermittently within a range of 20 to 75 mmhg. This is independently controlled and ensures thermal delivery is not impacted during therapy. Consistent We can provide temperature, compression and fit consistently and accurately time after time. This repeatability means we can quantify and measure recovery. 6 7

5 TECHNOLOGY Accelerating soft tissue repair Preventing injury in advance of activity Aiding recovery after exercise The application of pressure, warming and cooling is commonly used but never with any real precision. It is vital to change this no control approach. We must understand what is required and when. We need to ensure enough energy (cooling, warming, compression) is provided to deliver the best outcomes but not too much, which could potentially slow down performance or even cause damage. Our bodies go through different stages of recovery and healing and our requirements change during this time. Understand these changes and you can track progress and also know what therapy to apply and when. BIO TUNE PKGRP The ability to continually and autonomously adjust energy capacity within the Therapy Pack to match the physical and biological requirements of its unique user. The unique, patented design of our tubular Therapy Packs creates 360 degrees of continuous contact around the limb, ensuring a perfect grip every time. Why: This controls how thermal energy is held directly against the tissue. It is essential to have just enough energy capacity in the Therapy Pack to deliver a safe and effective treatment. Why: PKGRP provides a custom fit first time every time with superior thermal connection. This ensures that the selected thermal and compression profiles are precisely and consistently delivered to the treatment area. NRG-FLO Turning the intangible into the tangible by monitoring the thermal energy flowing between the Therapy Pack and user, with real-time feedback and communication. Why: This builds a true understanding of the state and condition of the injured tissue and allows the user to monitor progress throughout repair and recovery. TISSUPROTECT An enhanced safety feature that independently and continuously measures the temperature and pressure of the Therapy Pack in use. Why: By directly and independently measuring the Therapy Pack s state, we can accurately record the thermal energy flow to and from the user. This verifies both safety and effectiveness throughout the treatment. DIGITAL PRESCRIPTION The ability to create a single or course of digital treatments that can be accessed securely and remotely. Why: This feature enables professionals to prescribe safe and effective treatments for their clients continuing recovery or rehabilitation at the client s convenience. 8 9
