Abstract
The aim of this lecture is to outline the main physiological processes involved in the heating of wounds and to suggest a mechanism by which pulsed radiofrequency (RF) energy, or the currents induced in tissues by the application of that energy, may influence its course. Emphasis is given to the part played by oedema in inhibiting the processes of wound healing. Reference is made to the growing evidence that pulsed RF energy affects the time course of wound healing and the hypothesis is proposed that one possible mechanism by which pulsed RF energy accelerates wound healing is by reducing oedema.
