Plasma On Chronic Wounds for Epidermal Regeneration

간략 요약

Every year, 5 million people throughout Germany suffer from extensive, often chronic wounds. Cold plasma is an innovative therapeutic approach in the treatment of these persistent tissue defects. However, previous therapy options with cold plasma are very time-consuming, especially with increasing wound area, and are also strongly dependent on the skill of the practitioner. This study investigates the effectiveness of a system for reproducible application of cold plasma on larger areas and observes the effect of a 4-week additional plasma treatment on wound healing of large chronic wounds. The patient-related benefit of such an additional treatment will also be evaluated. Both study arms will receive guideline-based wound therapy, which is the current gold standard.
