Abstract
Combined Ultrasound and Electric Field Stimulation Aids the Healing of Chronic Pressure Ulcers
Jonathan Rosenblum and Michael Papamichael
The authors evaluate a novel device that utilizes Combined Ultrasound and Electric Field Stimulation to treat recalcitrant pressure ulcers. The subjects were all residents in our skilled nursing facilities and had the ulcers for more than two months. The evaluation showed that there was a significant increase in healing among patients who had CUSEFS added to their treatment regimen. The results were independent of age of the patients, and size and duration of the wound prior to enrollment. Only location of the wound was found to have an effect on healing rates.
