PATIENT STORY
The boots to save Grethe’s legs
The doctors would amputate the leg of Grethe Valskaar Hetland. Then she got hold of the FlowOx boots. It looks almost like a transparent slalom boot, or an oversized snow jog from the 1980s.
The boot alternates between vacuum and non-vacuum. This should improve blood circulation micro level in the tissue of the foot. The medical community describes the invention as promising, and awaits more documentation.
