The science behind Digivibe rests on the Pain Gate Theory. It presents a revolutionary concept that has reshaped our understanding of pain management. Introduced by Ronald Melzack and Patrick Wall in 1965, this theory explains the mechanism by which the spinal cord gates the transmission of pain signals to the brain.
Digivibe represents an innovative application, based on this scientific principle.
The Declaration of Montreal, declared by the International Pain Summit of the International Association for the Study of Pain, identifies access to pain management as a fundamental human right. It highlights the global need for equitable pain management solutions. It points out that billions around the world lack adequate access to proper pain treatment. This declaration sets forth a robust framework for advocating global rights to pain management without discrimination.
Echoing the need for innovative pain management, the "Children's Comfort Promise" initiative at Children's Hospitals and Clinics of Minnesota demonstrates a proactive approach to pediatric pain management. This hospital-wide initiative successfully reduced needle pain through a blend of topical anesthetics, comfort positioning, and appropriate distraction methods.
DigiVibe, aligns perfectly with the initiative’s ethos by providing a non-invasive, drug-free method to block pain perception during needle procedures.
