Abstract

At present, current stimulation, ultra-sound, and light therapy have become effective methods to promote wound healing. Among them, infrared light is the most widely used method and is one of the important methods to promote wound healing. The therapeutic effect of infrared light on wounds is related to the effect of photobiomodulation on cells and molecules on the skin surface, but the mechanism by which photobiomodulation of infrared light promotes wound healing has not been fully elucidated. Therefore, it is necessary to study the action characteristics and the mechanism of photo-biomodulation of infrared light in promoting wound healing. This article reviews the effect of different types of infrared light on wound healing and the mechanism of infrared light in promoting wound healing.

目前,电流刺激、超声波、光治疗等已经成为促进创面愈合的有效方法,其中红外光应用最为广泛,是促进创面愈合的重要方法之一。红外光对创面的治疗作用与光生物调节作用对皮肤表面细胞分子的影响有关,但红外光的光生物调节作用促进创面愈合的机制尚未被完全阐明。因此,有必要研究红外光的作用特点及其光生物调节作用促进创面愈合的机制。该文从不同类型红外光对创面愈合的效果和红外光促进创面愈合的机制2个方面进行综述。.
