Electric factors in wound healing. A wound provokes a transcutaneous voltage known as skin battery with alternations in the electric field during wound healing (A). Ion cells and water are transported in the VICC (B). Positively charged cells are attracted to the negative pole and negatively charged cells to the positive pole (electrotaxis) (C). In interstitium, albumin is excluded by glycosaminoglycans as a consequence of inflammatory process (D).
