ABSTRACT
Burns are a common type of trauma that seriously affect not only the physical health, but also the mental health and quality of life of the patient. Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) is an emerging treatment that has been used in clinical treatment. It has many advantages, including safety, non-invasiveness, efficiency, short treatment duration, fewer complications, and relatively low prices. In clinical settings, ESWT has played an important role in the healing process of burns and the prevention of sequelae. This article reviews the history of ESWT, the mechanism of ESWT to promote burn healing, and the application of ESWT in burns. Current status of ESWT treatment for burns as well as future perspectives for research have been summarized and proposed. However, patients with burns cannot be considered recovered when the wounds have healed, we need some new technology to adjust to the challenges of the future.
