Electrical healing
lectrical fields (EFs) present at wound sites can orient and promote cell divisions, according to work by Bing Song, Colin McCaig, and colleagues (University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen, Scotland). The EFs arise because channels shuttle ions between the tear fluid on the outside of the eye and the extracellular fluid bathing the underlying tissue layers. Before the surface of an eye is damaged, chann...
متن کاملElectrical Stimulation And Wound Healing References
Evidence is reviewed (8 studies involving 215 clinical patients with ischemic skin ulcers and 7 animal tissue or tissue culture studies) that electrical stimulation of fibroblast cells accelerates the intracellular biosynthesis necessary to form new granulation tissue in a healing wound, and that both a direct local tissue effect and a circulatory improvement occur. A model is presented in whic...
متن کامل• Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation Enhances Fracture Healing
METHODS: The study protocol was approved and followed by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee of the author’s institution. Twentyfour rabbits received unilateral, transverse, mid-tibial, 3-mm gapped osteotomies that were stabilized with double-bar external fixators. With the aim to simulate the venous stasis and soft tissue edema that is common to acute tibial fractures, the left fem...
متن کاملAcceleration of bone healing by electrical stimulation.
Stimulation of bone and soft tissue healing by means of artificial application of electrical energy is a research frontier offering promise of major progress in orthopedic and rehabilitation treatment . Advances in this field could give the clinician a measure of direct control over the processes of healing. Attempts to stimulate bone healing with electrical energy are based on certain observat...
متن کاملElectrical stimulation to accelerate wound healing
BACKGROUND There are several applications of electrical stimulation described in medical literature to accelerate wound healing and improve cutaneous perfusion. This is a simple technique that could be incorporated as an adjunctive therapy in plastic surgery. The objective of this review was to evaluate the results of randomized clinical trials that use electrical stimulation for wound healing....
