Abstract
A plasma generating device utilizes a cold plasma to contain and direct a stream of electrons with a hand held nozzle to enhance healing of wounds and skin surface abnormalities, and to kill pathogens on skin surfaces in humans and animals wounds, abnormalities and pathogens.
Claims18
A device for treating wounds comprising:
- an electrode for establishing a shaped plasma for directing an electron beam;
- a gas supply connected to said electrode to support said plasma;
- and a voltage supply connected to said electrode for energization of said plasma and establishment of said electron beam.
A method for providing care of a wound comprising the steps of:
- (a) providing an electrode for establishing a shaped plasma for directing an electron beam, a gas supply connected to the electrode to support said plasma and a voltage supply connected to the electrode for energization of the plasma;
- (b) energizing the electrode to establish a Plasma Directed Electron Beam (PDEB) and to create a supply of photons that are guided within the plasma;
- and
- (c) directing the PDEB toward a wound.
