Application Technique for Fluidotherapy

Equipment Required

Fluidotherapy unit of appropriate size and shape for areas to be treated

Procedure

1. Remove all jewelry and clothing from the area to be treated and inspect the area.

2. Cover any open wounds with a plastic barrier to prevent the cellulose particles

from becoming lodged in the wound.

3. Extend the body part to be treated through the portal of the unit.

4. Secure the sleeve to prevent particles from escaping from the cabinet.

5. Set the temperature at 38° C to 48° C (100° F to 118° F).

6. Adjust the degree of agitation to achieve patient comfort.

7. The patient may move or exercise during the intervention.

8. Treat for 20 minutes.

Advantages

• Patient can move during the intervention to work on gaining AROM.

• Minimal pressure applied to the area being treated

• Temperature well-controlled and constant throughout intervention

• Easy to administer

Disadvantages

• Expensive equipment

• Limb must be in dependent position in some units, increasing the risk of edema

formation.

• The constant heat source may result in overheating.

• If the corn cob particles spill onto a smooth floor, they will make the floor

slippery.
