About SportVis™
SportVis™ is a treatment used for treating Grade 1 and 2 ankle sprains. It is administered by a trained medical professional via peri-articular injection into the site of injury using the fanning technique.
The fanning technique helps to spread SportVis™ over a large surface area within the injury site to ensure optimal interaction with the torn ligament.
The main content of SportVis™ is STABHA™ (Soft Tissue Adapted Biocompatible Hyaluronic Acid).
SportVis™ is a registered product. Both SportVis™ and the manufacturing process for STABHA™ are patented.
Clinical studies have demonstrated that SportVis™ enabled most patients to achieve a faster return to pain-free and disability-free sporting activities: 11 vs 17 days, when compared to placebo.
By interacting with the injured ligament, a better quality of healing is possible as SportVis™ strengthens the ankle’s ligament during the healing process and reduces scar tissue formation.
Hyaluronic acid has the ancillary effect of reducing pain and limiting inflammation.
SportVis™ containing STABHA™ (Soft Tissue Adapted Biocompatible Hyaluronic Acid) helps reduce the pain and limit inflammation in ankle sprain.
SportVis™ containing STABHA™ (Soft Tissue Adapted Biocompatible Hyaluronic Acid) can aid completion of the healing process with less scar tissue formation thus providing quality healing.
A published study has shown that SportVis™ can reduce the rate of recurrence.
SportVis™ requires a peri-articular injection that can only be performed by a medical professional that has been trained in the injection technique.
SportVis™ should be injected into the injury site preferrably within 48 hours of the injury. A 2nd injection needs to be administered 48 hours after the 1st injection.
SportVis™ was designed to be used concurrently with the R.I.C.E. (rest, ice compression and elevation) standard of care. Using SportVis™ together with R.I.C.E. will allow the patient to regain range of motion more quickly.
SportVis™ has been approved to relieve pain and optimise recovery of the ankle following first or second degree sprain.
SportVis™ containing STABHA™ (Soft Tissue Adapted Biocompatible Hyaluronic Acid) has been specifically designed to interact optimally with soft tissue ligament due to its purity profile and biocompatibility.
When SportVis™ is injected into the site of injury, it reacts rapidly and efficiently with the torn ligament.
Through early saturation of the injury site with STABHA™, the full potential of its role may be achieved.
