Healing of Burns and the Effect of Shockwave Therapy on the Recovery of Skin Grafts

The study is to review whether musculoskeletal shockwave therapy (ESWT) can speed up the healing of second-degree burns as well as skin-graft donor sites. In both cases, the primary hypothesis is the shortened period leading up to the complete healing of the wound (reepithelization). The secondary hypothesis in the course of the study assesses: the rare manifestation of undesirable local events (e.g. reddening, swelling, hematoma).
