Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The expected outcome is the clinical success in the healing of lesions and ulcers, achieving a reduction in the number of microorganisms present in the lesion. Soon after the collection will be done the processing of the sample to count colony forming units (CFU) of two moments, one before and another immediately after the application of photodynamic therapy. The obtained values will pass through appropriate statistical tests that will make the comparison of the percentages of reduction obtained in each group, before and after the application of the technique.
