WHAT IT IS AND
HOW IT WORKS
Ecosave is an electronic stimulator
of limited weight and dimensions that can emit,
through two electrodes, high-voltage and low-amperage
discharges: one every two seconds and of one hundredth-second
long.
This instrument is a modern and revolutionary emergency
mean, that can be used before any other assistance
given by a doctor or at the hospital, and it acts
effectively against snakes venomous bites, insects
venomous stings (bees, wasps, bumble-bees, etc.),
arachnidan (scorpions, spiders etc.) and marine
animals (greater weevers, jellyfishes, urticant
coral).
Ecosave can be part of the first aid medical equipment
that every hiker, naturalist, forestal or ecological
operator, agriculturalist, apiculturist and every
other person in charge of the hunting and fishing
supervision can carry with the minimum encumbrance.
In particular, the hunters will fully appreciate
its multiple performances: its use can also be extended
to their dogs in case of viper's bites, that not
rarely lead to the death of the affected animal. |

APPLICATION PROCEDURES
Snakes.
The venomous snakes
bites generally leave, on the hit part, a wound
with two symmetrical holes, which is caused by
the venomous teeth. The instrument's electrodes
have to be put on the wounds, giving a first discharge.
Then, applying an electrode on one of the two
wounds, proceed circularly giving from 3 to 7
discharges. In the same way, repeat the process
on the second wound, thus treating the whole interested
area.
 CAUTION
Ecosave is effective against
vipers bites, when the venom acts locally as hemocytotoxic
agent. Ecosave's action
is not effective against neurotoxic venom that
is transmitted through nerve fibers, as the bites
by cobras or other animals.
|
Bumble-bees, bees, wasps,
arachnidan, fishes and jellyfishes.
The hymenoptera and other animals' bites can be
very dangerous, and must not be underestimated.
Before using ECOSAVE examine the affected area and
if the sting has remained into the skin, remove
it or remove any other remainder of spines or tentacles.
Put the instrument's electrode on the sting, and
apply it on the sting, proceed circularly giving
from 3 to 7 discharges.
|
If
the affected subject is assisted rapidly,
the electric stimulation can reduce the local
symptoms in a few minutes - pain, stinging, flush,
swelling - consequences of the venom introduced
under skin.
Ecosave is an emergency instrument. In the most
serious cases (allergic people or snake bites)
after the treatment refer to a doctor or to a
hospital.
The electrical stimulation's validity has been
and is being object of studies, elaborations and
experimentations by American and European researchers.
Between the various scientific publications, the
influential medical journal "The Lancet"
has discussed the topic on several occasions.
IMPORTANT: the treatment
with ECOSAVE must be done at the proper time.
The more is the time elapsed between the bite
or the sting and the treatment, progressively
less will be ECOSAVE's efficacy.

WARNINGS
• Ecosave can be used in adults and in children
starting from six years of age.
• It cannot be used on pace-maker bearers
and on cardiopathic subjects.
• Do not use around the eyes, mouth or other
sensitive parts of the body.
• Do not use after the application of insects
repellent or anyhow in the proximities of flammable
substances.
• To prevent any infection transmission,
we advise a strictly personal use of the product;
when the instrument is used on more than one person,
it is necessary to disinfect the product between
one use and the other.
• Keep out from the reach of children.
