Evaluation of the Healing Progress of Pressure Ulcers Treated with Cathodal High-Voltage Monophasic Pulsed Current: Results of a Prospective, Double-blind, Randomized Clinical Trial

Abstract: Cathodal HVMPC reduces the WSA of Stage II and III PrUs. The results are consistent with the results of other researchers who used HVMPC to treat PrUs.

“…Research teams were composed only of nurses ( n = 93, 27.4%), nurses and physicians ( n = 98, 28.8%) or multiprofessional teams ( n = 76, 22%). Twenty‐one studies (6.2%) did not involve any nurses as they were composed only of physicians or other HCPs (e.g., physical educators, physiotherapists, and psychologists; Hudson, Davidson, & Whiteley, ; Martin, Battaglini, Hands, & Naumann, ; Myhr & Augestad, ; Polak et al., ).…”

“…A corrente de alta voltagem (EAV) é polarizada com resultados promissores na redução de edemas (Dolan et al, 2005;Synder et al, 2010), cicatrização de feridas (Guo et al, 2013;Polak et al, 2014;Polak et al, 2016;Zhou et al, 2016), e na dor (Stralka et al, 1998;Gomes et al, 2012;Rajfur et al, 2017). Já estimulação elétrica nervosa transcutânea (ENT), pode ser ou não polarizada e se destaca pelo efeito analgésico, no caso da baixa frequência estimula as fibras nervosas que favorecem a liberação de opióides endógenos que inibem estímulos nocioceptores na medula espinal (Goldestein, 1976;Sabino et al, 2008;Santos et al, 2013).…”

“…Ensaios clínicos relacionados à estimulação elétrica de alta voltagem (EAV) são em grande maioria em úlceras crônicas em membros inferiores, decorrentes de diversas doenças Feedar, 1988;Griffin et al, 1991;Franek;Kuchrzewski, 2000;Peters et al, 2001;Houghton et al, 2003;Houghton et al, 2010;Franek et al, 2012;Polak et al, 2013;Polak et al, 2016;Zhouk et al, 2016). Ainda há estudos que usam a EAV com enfoque no processo de cicatrização em lesões agudas, sendo maioria experimental (Brown;McDonnell;Menton, 1989;Brown et al, 1995;Borba et al, 2011;Kim;Cho;Lee, 2014), apresentando bons resultados na aceleração do processo de cicatrização, sendo que não foi encontrado até o presente momento um ensaio clínico envolvendo o uso do recurso terapêutico em vítimas em queimaduras.…”
