 The gekoTM device, CE 558928; British Standards Institute notified body 0086,is a wearable, discrete, self-contained stimulation unit that adheres to the skin see The, gekoTM triggers small electrical impulses that gently activate the common peroneal nerve within the popliteal fossa, behind the knee, in turn activating the venous muscle pumps of the calf and foot. Substantive increases in lower limb blood flow have been demonstrated to improve arterial, venous and microcirculatory blood flow with no reported morbidity.
