The use of medical ozone in the treatment of chronic pain is progressively expanding in Spain and today it is used both in public and private medical centers. However, there is a great lack of knowledge about this technology not only in primary care but also in medical specialties. Although its biochemical bases are well determined and there are various systematic reviews and meta-analyses in the literature that justify its use in pain medicine, some professionals still are prejudiced against it. The evidence level of using medical ozone according SIGN (Scotish Intercollegiate Guideline Network) criteria is similar or superior to most of the techniques used in a Pain Unit. In this paper, we have done a review on ozone therapy in pain medicine, compiling the evidence published about it.
在西班牙,医用臭氧在慢性疼痛治疗中的应用正在逐步扩大,如今它在公立和私立医疗中心均有使用。然而,不仅在基层医疗中,而且在医学专科领域,对这项技术都极为缺乏了解。尽管其生化基础已得到充分确定,并且文献中有各种系统评价和荟萃分析证明其在疼痛医学中的应用合理性,但仍有一些专业人员对其存在偏见。根据苏格兰校际指南网络(SIGN)标准,使用医用臭氧的证据水平与疼痛科所使用的大多数技术相当或更高。在本文中,我们对疼痛医学中的臭氧疗法进行了综述,汇集了已发表的相关证据。
