The increase in the incidence of osteomyelitis requires further development of effective methods for the prevention and elimination of the osteomyelitis process. Currently, a promising direction is the use of direct electric current, which has an antimicrobial effect. However, its use in medical practice is limited due to the lack of clear recommendations. The study was carried out on 18 rats (Wistar), divided into 3 groups: control and 2 experimental. In rats of all groups, osteomyelitis of the femur was simulated by introducing Staphylococcus aureus (1×108 CFU, MSSA) into the medullary canal with the installation of an intramedullary metal implant secured with an external fixation device. In the postoperative period, the animals of the experimental groups underwent sessions of local electric exposure (in experimental group 1 -on days 0, 2, 4, 6, in experimental group 2 -on days 7, 9, 11, 13) with a constant electric current of 150 mAm for 1 minutes, using fixing elements as electrodes. The rats of the control group did not undergo electrical stimulation sessions. Animals were observed for 21 days. In all groups of animals, clinical and radiological signs of an inflammatory process in the area of surgical intervention were revealed: soft tissue edema, exudate outflow, changes in temperature and body weight, lysis and resorption of bone tissue around pin fixators, periosteal reaction, and uneven thickness of the cortical bone plate. In rats of the experimental group 2, a more passive course of the infection was noted, which led to a decrease in the clinical signs of inflammation and a smoothing of the course of destruction processes at the end of the experiment. Thus, the obtained results indicate the need for further study of the effect of direct electric current on the development of bone infection.
