High Intensity of Continuous Ultrasound in the Skin Repair Process in Rats: Risks to Tissue Integrity
Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering and Science Invention - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
Healing is a complex process involving different steps. Any change in one of them interferes with the normal repair process causing functional, morphological and aesthetic problems in the scar. Therapeutic ultrasound is a widely used and studied resource for cutaneous repair. However, divergences and parameters cause further scientific investigations. The experimental research sought to verify the effects of the high intensity of the therapeutic ultrasound in the cutaneous healing process of rats in the different stages 3, 7 and 21 days. Methodology: 60 animals, male rats, young adults, were irradiated in one SHAM group and another group with 3MHz continuous and intensity 2.0W / cm² for 5 minutes, 24 h after surgery. Results: The high intensity of the TUS in the continuous mode promoted burns, necrosis and poor healing in the irradiated areas. Conclusion: The high intensity of continuous TUS irradiated for 5 minutes was not therapeutic in skin repair of rats.
