Pressure Ulcers

Print
Pressure ulcers, also known as decubitus or bedsores, are caused by continuous pressure on any part of the body, but especially on the bony and cartilaginous areas. Pressure ulcers develop readily during long confinements to bed and therefore, are prevalent during prolonged illnesses and/or in permanently bed bound persons, such as the elderly people.

Pressure ulcers are very painful and in advanced stages progressively more difficult to treat and heal. Non-healing pressure ulcers can be life threatening. They exert further suffering and trauma on people that are already weakened by other underlying conditions, disabilities or injuries.

When dealing with pressure ulcers, therapeutic goals are to control the pain, whilst inducing tissue regeneration and accelerating wound healing.

Laser phototherapy delivers outstanding results in healing of pressure sores. Biostimulating laser light improves blood flow and energises affected tissues. It activates cellular metabolism and speeds up healing processes. Laser phototherapy treatment reduces pain naturally and without side effects.

Laser phototherapy is totally painless and does not traumatise the patients. The treatment is simple and easy to perform either by medical professionals or by the carers. Achieving good outcomes in the difficult healing of pressure ulcers is pleasing and rewarding for everyone - the patients and the therapists alike.
