LOW INTENSITY PULSED ULTRASOUND TREATMENT INCREASES RABBIT RADIAL FRACTURE HEALING
In order to study the effect of ultrasound (US) on bone healing, a complete transverse fracture was made in the right radius of adult male rabbits by a cutter. 52 rabbits were used: group I. control (n= 17): group 2. test (n:=: 15): group 3, intact (n= I) and group 4 (n= 12) who were examined only for evaluation of the cutter effects in detail. 7 animals were operated with a Gigli saw. The ...
متن کاملChronic dermal ulcer healing enhanced with monophasic pulsed electrical stimulation.
The purposes of this randomized, double-blind, multicenter study were to compare healing of chronic dermal ulcers treated with pulsed electrical stimulation with healing of similar wounds treated with sham electrical stimulation and to evaluate patient tolerance to the therapeutic protocol. Forty-seven patients, aged 29 to 91 years, with 50 stage II, III, and IV ulcers were randomly assigned to...
متن کاملWound Healing Trajectories to Determine Pressure Ulcer Treatment Efficacy
BACKGROUND Wound healing trajectories (percent healing vs time) provide a dynamic picture of the decrease in wound burden over the entire continuum of the healing process. Trajectories can be robustly compared using survival statistics methodology. Improvement in healing can be determined by shifting the curve from "impaired" healing toward "ideal" healing. Although this concept of shifting the...
متن کاملThe Effects of Dr Kamkar’s Herbal Cream in Healing Stage One to Third Pressure Ulcer
Background: Pressure ulcers are among the most serious skin and tissue disorders and put a heavy financial burden on healthcare systems. These ulcers break through the body’s first line of defense and can lead to severe consequences such as septicemia and death. Nowadays, most conventional treatments are very costly; therefore, the production of less expensive medications including herbal remed...
متن کاملThe effects of polarized light therapy in pressure ulcer healing.
BACKGROUND/AIM Neglecting polarized light as an adjuvant therapy for pressure ulcers and methodology distinctions in the trials engaging polarized light are the reasons for many dilemmas and contradictions. The aim of this study was to establish the effects of polarized light therapy in pressure ulcer healing. METHODS This prospective randomized single-blind study involved 40 patients with st...
