The effectiveness of combined laser therapy in patients with trophic leg ulcer and chronic venous insufficiency

Abstract

Development and scientific justification for the low-intensity laser radiation of different wavelengths combined use in patients with trophic leg ulcers and chronic venous insufficiency (CVI). 102 patients with trophic leg ulcers and CVI were examined. They were divided into 3 equal groups using simple randomization. Patients in the control group received only traditional conservative therapy; comparison group - traditional conservative therapy and an intravenous laser blood irradiation (ILBI) (λ - 635 nm); the main group - traditional conservative therapy and different wavelengths laser therapy (LT) course. A more significant improvement in the clinical condition occurred under the influence of the course application of combined different wavelengths laser therapy in patients with trophic venous leg ulcers. Compared to patients who received traditional conservative therapy and in combination with ILBI 635 nm, the speed of reparative regeneration of trophic ulcers increased, the time for cleansing trophic ulcers from devitalized tissues was reduced. Computer capillaroscopy data showed that the positive effect of laser exposure on all parts of the microcirculation underlies its therapeutic efficacy.
