Radio electric tissue optimization in the treatment of surgical wounds

PURPOSE: To report preliminary results with the tissue optimization (TO) treatment with a radio electric asymmetric conveyer (REAC) in promoting the repair of surgical wounds. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Two subjects, a 54-year-old male with a tear bruise on the upper third of the leg and a 19-year-old fe...

description PURPOSE: To report preliminary results with the tissue optimization (TO) treatment with a radio electric asymmetric conveyer (REAC) in promoting the repair of surgical wounds. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Two subjects, a 54-year-old male with a tear bruise on the upper third of the leg and a 19-year-old female with a stab wound to the hand, were treated with 12 REAC-TO treatment sessions. RESULTS: In both patients, the wounds showed shorter healing time compared with the time usually required for similar wounds, and good repair quality. CONCLUSION: REAC device with its specific treatment protocols may be an alternative therapy for wound healing.
