Effect of Photobiomodulation on the Repair of Pressure Ulcers in Adult and Elderly Patients: A Systematic Review
Conclusion: PBMT in the infrared wavelength showed efficacy in the healing of the pressure ulcer, similar to the standard care presented in the different studies. PBMT(658nm) was effective in promoting healing when compared to standard care. Laser can be a therapy of choice in the treatment of pressure ulcers, since no evidence has been found to refute its clinical application.
