Outline of Final Research Achievements

In the present study, we evaluated the effects that cool and hot packs as an initial therapy has contributed wound healing on post-pressure induced deep tissue injury model mouse.
Wound healing is similar to that of secondary intention on the model mouse. The cool group had significant tissue necrosis in the epidermis/dermis, but l though the deep skeletal muscle had been damaged, muscle cell regeneration was noted on days 5 to 7. The hot group exhibited reverse findings in the respective tissue layers, and had delayed regeneration of skeletal muscle.　Applied cool or hot packs to the pressure wound were indicated different effects on each layer of the skin tissue including muscles.
