Effectiveness of electrophysical agents for treating pressure injuries: a systematic review.

Tissue injuries that affect the skin and/or adjacent tissues and are usually over a bony prominence are called pressure injuries. The prevalence of these dysfunctions remains high, and despite technological advances, there is no consensus on the most appropriate treatment. The objective of this review was to evaluate the efficacy of photobiomodulation (PBM), ultrasound, and high-frequency electrophysical agents in the healing of pressure injuries in adults and the elderly.
