LIMBWatch Series: Reinventing Hydrotherapy—Jason Ayer, RN’s Topical Oxygen-Powered Approach to Limb Salvage

In this episode of Limb Watch Series with Diabetic Foot Files, host interviews Jason Ayers, a wound care RN and inventor of a topical oxygen hydrotherapy kit that combines warmed antimicrobial cleansing solution with localized oxygen bubbles to cleanse and promote healing in chronic wounds, especially diabetic foot ulcers. Jason explains the origin and prototype development, demonstrates a typical 10–15 minute treatment session, and shares case-study results showing faster cleansing, improved tissue color, reduced drainage and odor, and positive patient feedback. The discussion covers how the device fits into current debridement tools, safety and infection-control design choices, and the inventor’s vision for broader clinical adoption and training to help prevent amputations and advance limb preservation.
