Avaliação da aplicação clínica da coagulação com plasma de argônio na ablação do esôfago de Barrett

The Effect of Plasma Jet on Bacterial Species and Correlation with Physiotherapy

“…To evaluate the clinical application of argon plasma jet coagulation in the ablation of Barret's esophagus, a group of 30 patients was selected, 25 of whom were male, aged between 12 and 72 years old and 5 of them were female, aged between 45 and 60 years, who underwent antireflux surgery and later referred for treatment with argon plasma coagulation. Patients were submitted to sessions at 30-day intervals until the lesion completely disappeared on endoscopy; a success rate with a total ablation of 93.4% was observed, with no death data during the study period, supporting our study in the safe use of argon gas for therapeutic use in skin lesions [25].…”
