Onychomycosis of Toenail
Interventions
DEVICE

Single wavelength light (red) only

Clinicians should confirm a diagnosis of distal subungual onychomycosis (DSO). Clinician should assign an OSI score to each nail using the Onychomycosis Severity Index (OSI). The ToeFX system is intended for use in any room in which standard foot care treatments are routinely administered. Debridement should not be carried out more proximally than the most proximal margin of the dystrophic nail, as this can interfere with assessment of clear nail area attributable to the device intervention. The clinician should debride the nail, apply formula, and position the affected foot directly under the ToeFX ClearToe Therapy red light (640-660 nm). For safety, the light has a built-in timer and automatically switches off after 15 minutes. The process should be repeated every 2 weeks for 6 months.

DEVICE

Dual wavelength light (red/blue)

Clinicians should confirm a diagnosis of distal subungual onychomycosis (DSO). Clinician should assign an OSI score to each nail using the Onychomycosis Severity Index (OSI). The ToeFX system is intended for use in any room in which standard foot care treatments are routinely administered. Debridement should not be carried out more proximally than the most proximal margin of the dystrophic nail, as this can interfere with assessment of clear nail area attributable to the device intervention. The clinician should debride the nail, apply formula, and position the affected foot directly under the ToeFX ClearToe Therapy dual wavelength light (640-660 nm and 405-450 nm). For safety, the light has a built-in timer and automatically switches off after 15 minutes. The process should be repeated every 2 weeks for 6 months..
