SYSTEMS, METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR CLEANING WOUNDS

摘要

Systems, methods and compositions for effectively cleaning wounds are described. According to the present invention, wound care is promoted by the use of a charged solution and particularly in the presence of sonic energy. Inventive methods for producing a solution which promotes removal of microbes, comprising charging a solution that contains at least a solute selected to promote removal of microbes, to produce a charged solution. As a result of charging, at least a portion of the solute is present as clusters in the charged solution. Alternatively, the solute is selected to promote formation of solute clusters, which effectively remove microbes found on or inside the wound. Inventive systems for applying the charged cleaning solution includes: (i) a housing capable of holding a pressurized-charged solution; and (ii) a sonic chamber capable of introducing sonic frequency into the pressurized-charged solution to form a sonically activated charged solution.
