Our advanced non-surgical piles treatment offers a safe, effective and minimally invasive solution for haemorrhoids, including prolapsed haemorrhoids, with minimal downtime and long term results. Unlike temporary solutions like piles cream or haemorrhoids cream, our treatment provides long term relief.
Our specialists assess your condition with a proctoscopy, and if piles are present, we offer eXroid treatment.
The low electrical current stimulates a chemical reaction, which seals off the feeding blood vessels.
Across a four week period post treatment your haemorrhoids will begin to shrink as blood vessels feeding the haemorrhoid are sealed off.
Direct Current Electrotherapy (DCE) was first used as a treatment for the management of internal haemorrhoids in the 19th century, with the first medical publication in 1867 on the use of galvanic current to treat internal haemorrhoids. The subsequent history of the use of DCE is an interesting one. Attempts at commercialising the technology have been made in the past with the Keesey machine in the 1920's and the Ultroid device developed in the late 1980's.
When it was realised that there were no manufacturers of the technology from whom to source a DCE device, eXroid Technology Ltd was established and completed the design, development and manufacture of the eXroid Haemorrhoid Treatment System in the UK. It gained its ISO13485:2016 and CE accreditations before being launched into clinical use in March 2019 in the UK.
Previously, the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) had recognised DCE as a safe and effective treatment for treating internal haemorrhoids from grades 1-3, with guidance being published in June 2015. In December 2019, NICE then published a MedTech Innovation Briefing (MIB201) which provided guidance that stated that the eXroid brand of DCE was safe and effective and could be used to treat patients suffering from internal haemorrhoids grade 1-3.
NICE stated they wanted to see more peer-reviewed and published data before it would add grade 4 to the guidance as well. In the USA, however, the FDA (the Food and Drug Administration), has issued approval for the use of DCE to treat all 4 grades of haemorrhoid, indeed, it is the only treatment for haemorrhoids that has been so classified in the USA.
