Compression of the effect of pulsed electromagnetic field and pulsed radio frequency energy on wound healing in rats

Abstract

Delayed or not sufficiently good wound healing is a significant problem in medical treatment is needed to support in order to improve healing. Low frequency electromagnetic field (EMF) applications are seems to give this support. Disturbed vascularization, connective tissue formation, matrix exchange, and inflammation process in the wound environment are modified after EMF applications compared with control groups. Deteriorations in these factors which can be returned with the electrical impulses, DNA synthesis, transcription and transforms of protein synthesis, increasing of fibroblasts and endothelial cell proliferation indicate the presence of EMF mechanisms. Since the application and ambient conditions are kept constant but the type of the application has been changed in our study, it was provided that pulsed radio frequency energy (PRFE) is more effective and has more long-term improvement compared to pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF). The effects of these applications on cells and understanding of the mechanisms of the behavior will be much more significant and meaningful contribute to the treatment.
