Abstract

The article presents materials reflecting the bioengineering potential of innovative biophysical methods for the treatment of chronic wounds based on the application of a plasma-arc system within comprehensive surgical wound management. The use of the unique biological and physical properties of low-temperature plasma in an inert argon gas environment represents a promising approach for the treatment of chronic and postoperative wounds characterized by purulent-necrotic lesions of soft and bone tissues. This method enables the destruction and removal of non-viable tissues, as well as the elimination of bacterial, viral, and fungal infections within the wound.
