Irrigation of peritoneal cavity with cold atmospheric plasma treated solution effectively reduces microbial load in rat acute peritonitis model

Abstract: Accurate and timely diagnosis of appendicitis in children can be challenging, which leads to delayed admittance or misdiagnosis that may cause perforation. Surgical management involves the elimination of the focus (appendectomy) and the reduction of the contamination with peritoneal irrigation to prevent sepsis. However, the validity of conventional irrigation methods is being debated, and novel methods are needed. In the present study, the use of cold plasma treated saline solution as an intraperitoneal irrig… Show more

“…CAP applications can be summarized in three main categories; surface modifications, therapeutic applications, and biological decontamination [2]. Antimicrobial activity, blood clotting, tooth whitening, wound healing, and anticancer efficacy are the main biomedical applications of CAP that are reported in the literature [3]. Due to its strong antimicrobial activity against a wide spectrum of microorganisms, including antibiotic-resistant organisms, CAP is an emerging technology that is undergoing intensive research.…”

“…It is formed when a gas mixture is subjected to a high voltage, which leads to the formation of charged species, free electrons, ions, and neutrals, in the gas phase, which can then also be found in the liquid phase as well. [ 2 ] Reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS), such as hydrogen peroxide, ozone, and nitric oxide, were produced during the discharge and have been established to have a wide range of biological effects, which leads researchers to apply CAP for different biomedical applications (Figure 1). [ 3 ] CAP exhibits therapeutic effects in various areas including wound healing, cancer therapy, antimicrobial research, dental applications, and dermatology.…”
