Advances in the treatment of haemorrhoids
eXroid offers the only direct current electrotherapy treatment for haemorrhoids in the UK. We are very proud to have designed, developed and manufactured our device here in the UK and have spent significant time researching and understanding this disease, as well as other treatments available, so that we can offer a treatment method that is superior in both design and delivery.
Our device is highly specialised and designed with the patient in-mind.
The eXroid device & features
We constantly strive to innovate and develop all of our technology, based on the outcomes of ongoing clinical research and evaluation. We have patent applications in over 130 countries worldwide and are committed to continuously improving the technology, to be increasingly effective in treating this condition for our patients. Our latest device features & developments are:
- Fully adjustable current – the Doctor is able to adjust the level of current delivered to the patient’s tolerance, as some can find the sensation uncomfortable.
- Ergonomic design – the handle is designed to allow the doctor to have easy control at the desired angle and is comfortable to hold during the procedure.
- Our eXroid Electrotherapy device is designed to be used by trained medical professionals in a clinic environment.
- Our Treatment Kits, that contain all the single use items such as the proctoscope, are supplied sterile and all components are supplied in Tyvek packaging and have been Gamma sterilised.
- Most importantly, eXroid holds ISO 13485:2016 accreditation which holds us to a high standard
