Gerador de alta frequência como recurso para tratamento de úlceras por pressão: estudo piloto

Abstract: INTRODUÇÃO: Após a descoberta da existência de campos elétricos em lesões de tecidos, começou-se a empregar a aplicação externa de correntes elétricas na cicatrização de feridas. Baseados nesses conceitos, estudos mostram que a estimulação elétrica por alta frequência (HF - high frequency) é concebida como uma opção útil no processo cicatricial. Apesar dessa afirmativa, não há consenso entre os pesquisadores para sua utilização no tratamento de afecções da pele, sendo utilizada empiricamente no tratamento de f… Show more

“…In the case of people with venous ulcers, the lesion's chronic nature and recurrence can aggravate the patient's socioeconomic situation and hinder mobility, some of the impediments to accessing treatment. 14 One of the interviewees was born into a remnant Quilombo **** community and we believe he may have been influenced initially to seek healing resources from the Folk Sector.
