determine the effectiveness of HVPC in wound healing in clinical practice. Acknowledgments We thank Mary Ann Cardani for technical assistance and the laboratory staff at Hurley Medical Center for providing clinical isolates used in our pilot studies. Dr Donald Boys, Department of Physics, The University of Michigan-Flint, provided technical expertise in recording the actual waveforms generated.
