Science of MIST Therapy When to Use Mist Therapy?

Healthcare professionals today are not only required to provide the highest quality of patient care, but also the most cost effective. This is why so many physicians and clinicians are looking to add MIST Therapy® to their patient’s wound care protocols.

MIST Therapy is a painless, noncontact, low-frequency ultrasound delivered through a saline mist to the wound bed.

These gentle sound waves stimulate the cells within and below the wound bed to promote healing.

The result of these gentle sound waves pushing against the tissue within the wound bed include:

Cell stimulation^(2,17,18)
Reduced Inflammation (17)
Reduced bacteria and bioburden^(21,23)
Increased blood flow^(17,26)

All these factors work together to speed the rate of healing without pain. Not only is the MIST Therapy procedure painless, but several studies have shown it reduces wound pain over time*^{(14,24,25,27)}
