The treatment of problem wounds in multidisciplinary. One of the team members is physiotherapist, with knowledge of thermotherapeutic and electrotherapeutic modalities. Although a plethora of literature exists about effectiveness of physiotherapeutic methods and techniques for healing the problem wounds, there is no firm statements about the most appropriate modality.
Summary		Staranje kože je eden od najpomembnejših dejavnikov tveganja za pojavnost problematičnih ran pri starostnikih. Najpogostejše so golenske razjede in preležanine. Zdravljenje problematičnih ran je multidisciplinarno. Eden od članov take delovne skupine je tudi fizioterapevt, ki ima na voljo kar nekaj termoterapevtskih in elektroterapevtskih postopkov. Čeprav obstaja razmeroma veliko strokovne literature o (ne)uspešnosti posameznih fizioterapevtskih metod in tehnik pri zdravljenju problematičnih ran, še vedno ni dovolj trdnih stališč o najprimenejšem izboru.
