PULSED ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD AND NEGATIVE PRESSURE THERAPY WOUND TREATMENT METHOD AND SYSTEM

摘要

A method for treating a wound of an individual and for enhancing a rate of wound healing by applying, for a first period of time, a negative pressure treatment to the wound without applying a pulsed radio frequency treatment; and applying, for a second period of time subsequent to the first period time, a pulsed radio frequency energy treatment to the wound while maintaining the negative pressure treatment to enhance the rate of wound healing. The negative pressure treatment and the pulsed radio frequency energy treatment are applied concurrently for the duration of the second period of time.
