Article Synopsis
  • This study investigates the effects of concurrent optical and magnetic stimulation (COMS) on hard-to-heal wounds in real-world settings, applied 1-3 times a week for up to 12 weeks alongside standard care.
  • A total of 27 patients (average age 72) with unresponsive wounds, such as venous leg ulcers and pressure ulcers, showed a 69% average reduction in wound area, with 50% achieving complete closure by the end of the study.
  • The findings suggest COMS is effective in treating tough wounds, particularly pressure and venous leg ulcers, and it may be useful for debridement and preparing wounds for further treatments like skin grafts.
