Studysummary In this study, researchers found that using electromagnetic radiation in the EHF range enhanced the engraftment of skin flaps in rats by improving microcirculation and reducing necrosis, with greater effects observed when paired with systemic ozone therapy. Our plain-language summary of this paper — not a Tressless recommendation.
The study aimed to evaluate microcirculation in healing skin flaps under the influence of EHF band electromagnetic radiation and systemic ozone therapy. It involved 100 rats divided into five groups, including a control group and various treatment groups. The findings revealed that EHF radiation improved skin flap engraftment by enhancing microcirculation and reducing necrosis. This beneficial effect was further amplified when EHF therapy was combined with intraperitoneal injections of ozonated saline solution.
