Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of vibration stimulation on obese skin wound infection, focusing on the pathophysiology of obese skin. The results showed that vibration stimulation was associated with an increase in the intensity of obese skin wound. It was suggested that vibratory stimulation might prevent wound dehiscence, which increases the risk of infection.
