There are no sign of infection, granulation and epithelization processes were running optimal and exudate production was controlled. Conclusions and recommendation: Using ORNi therapy as an adjunct to standard care has shown a significant improvement. The rate of granulation and epithelization during 15 days of treatment has an average growth rate of granulation and epithelization up to 22%. Researchers recommend to do more research with suficcient sample size related to the use of ozone therapy as an adjunct in wound care.
