Show Notes

Dr. Rountree and Kristi review a study from June 2021 in which they tested the effectiveness of laser therapy with wound dressing vs only wound dressing for chronic wound healing. Chronic wounds include chronic ulcers, post-operative infections, diabetic foot ulcers, bedsores, severe burns, venous leg ulcers, and traumatic wounds. These are difficult to manage and often lead to amputation. Hear about the laser settings and treatment protocols used and the results achieved.
