Topical oxygen therapy (TOT) is used widely in the treatment of difficult-to-heal arterial and venous ulcers in patients with peripheral vascular disease (PVD), diabetic ulcers, and lower extremity venous insufficiency. Successful TOT relies on supplying 100% oxygen at 1.04 atmospheres to the ulcered area. In principle, TOT allows a rapid proliferation of new epithelium over the ulcer. This article describes two case studies with successful wound healing as a result of using this clinical method during hemodialysis sessions.
局部氧疗（TOT）广泛应用于治疗外周血管疾病（PVD）患者的难愈合动静脉溃疡、糖尿病溃疡和下肢静脉功能不全。成功的局部氧疗依赖于在1.04个大气压下向溃疡区域供应100%的氧气。原则上，局部氧疗能使溃疡表面迅速形成新的上皮组织。本文介绍了两例在血液透析过程中使用这种临床方法实现伤口成功愈合的病例研究。
