Results show: Despite having failed multiple other advanced wound care treatment modalities, these three patients received conservative management using Continuous Topical Oxygen Therapy (cTOT). This treatment algorithm resulted in positive healing trajectories in all three patients. Additionally, all patients relayed a decrease in wound pain with the use of cTOT. Leveraging continuous topical oxygen therapy in an outpatient setting resulted in the complete closure of these refractory radiation wounds with an average time to complete epithelialization of 3.6 weeks.
