Restoring the Polarity of the Diabetic Foot Ulcer The Bioelectric Signal That Tells a Wound Where to Heal

Restoring the Polarity of the Diabetic Foot Ulcer The Bioelectric Signal That Tells a Wound Where to Heal6. Okt.14 Min.

Dr. G explores the idea that wounds carry bioelectrical signals that guide cell movement and repair, and that diabetes can disrupt these electrical instructions in diabetic foot ulcers.The episode reviews how researchers measure wound electrical fields, how hyperglycemia may impair them, and whether targeted electrical stimulation could restore polarity and improve healing, with implications for future limb-preserving care.
