Effect of ultrasound-enhanced seeds oil on wound healing: An animal model.

Objectives: oil, ultrasound, and moist-exposed burn ointment (MEBO) have been suggested as noninvasive treatments for a number of inflammatory conditions and to accelerate wound healing. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of pulsed and continuous modes of ultrasound either alone or through phonophoresis, with oil, or MEBO ointment in the treatment of chemical burns.

Methods: Thirty-five local rabbits were randomly divided into seven equal groups: pulsed ultrasound, continuous ultrasound, topical oil, pulsed phonophoresis, continuous phonophoresis, topical MEBO ointment, and control group.
