Ultrasonic Mist in the Treatment of Nonhealing Wounds: Mechanism, Evidence and Outcomes

Print

This accredited educational session will provide healthcare professionals with an in-depth overview of Ultrasonic Mist Therapy as a non-contact, low-frequency ultrasound modality for managing nonhealing wounds. Dr Thomas Serena will cover the underlying mechanism of action, clinical indications, and evidence supporting its use in enhancing healing outcomes. Participants will also gain practical knowledge on incorporating ultrasonic mist into multidisciplinary wound care protocols, with emphasis on improving patient outcomes through evidence-based practices.

1. Describe how low-frequency, non-contact ultrasound stimulates cellular activity, reduces biofilm, and promotes wound healing.
2. Recognize wound types and patient profiles that benefit most from ultrasonic mist therapy, including diabetic foot ulcers, pressure injuries, and stalled chronic wounds.
3. Review key findings from recent clinical trials and case studies that support the efficacy and safety of ultrasonic mist in promoting wound closure and reducing infection.
4. Outline best practices for integrating ultrasonic mist therapy into wound care protocols, including device handling, session frequency, and safety considerations.
