The aim of wound bed preparation is to create an optimal wound-healing environment by producing a well vascularised, stable wound bed with minimal exudate. Bacterial load has a direct impact on wound healing. The management of the bacterial load by either local or systemic therapy is important in wound management.
Refraction of Sound Waves. Refraction of waves involves a change in the direction of waves as they pass from one medium to another. Refraction, or bending of the path of the waves, is accompanied by a change in speed and wavelength of the waves. So if the media (or its properties) are changed, the speed of the wave is changed.
In fact, sound moves faster through water than it does through air. But whether in air or in water, sound moves much more slowly than light does. While light travels at 186,000 miles per second, sound only goes 0.2 miles per second (343 meters per second, or about 770 miles per hour).
