Device typePneumatic orthopaedic extracorporeal shock wave therapy system: An assembly of devices designed to provide pneumatic orthopaedic extracorporeal shock wave therapy (OEST) to treat musculoskeletal disorders. It typically consists of a control unit that produces pneumatically-generated shock waves at selected impulse frequencies, and a hand-held surface applicator used to apply the energy to the site of pain. It is commonly used to treat disorders such as tendinopathies (e.g., rotator cuff, patellar, Achilles), soft tissue pain near bones, plantar fasciitis (heel pain), epicondylopathy (tennis elbow), shin splints, and muscle-related pain syndromes.
