”This study indicates, that Electrical Stimulation accelerates acute cutaneous wound healing evidenced by a reduction in wound volume, diameter and surface area and an increase in blood flow… This study further substantiates the role of Electrostimulation in enhancing cutaneous wound repair evidenced by quantifiable objective measures and histological analysis observed in multiple time points.”

“New developments in accelerating wound healing can have immense beneficial socioeconomic impact. Electrostimulation of wounds has shown a promising treatment option with no- device-related adverse effects. Rapid clinical translation of the evolving understanding of bio-molecular mechanisms underlying the effects of electrical simulation on wound healing would positively impact patient’s Quality Of Life.”

“Electric fields activate multiple cellular signaling pathways such as PI3K/PTEN, the membrane channel of KCNJ15/Kir4.2 and intracellular polyamines. These pathways are involved in the sensing of physiological electric fields, directional cell migration. Electric fields provide a dominant and over-riding signal that directs cell migration. Electrical stimulation could be a promising therapeutic method in promoting wound healing and activating regeneration of chronic wounds.”
