Abstract

Background: Gaseous ozone therapy is a new modality that has shown increasingly promising results in the healing of diabetic foot ulcers and an increased release of growth factors from platelets but presents health risks. Since aqueous ozone is safer and may also increase the release of growth factors, it was used in this multifaceted five-part study to determine its safety and effect on the release of platelets in diabetic participants. The data is expected to provide a proof of concept for a future study to quantify the effect of the external application of aqueous ozone on diabetic foot ulcers. [...]
