Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of ozone treatments on the rapid and uncomplicated recovery of the wound or the shortening of the time of suture placement. This study was carried out on a total of 40 patients who were admitted to our surgery clinic with 20 cats and 20 dogs of different ages, races, and genders. These animals were divided into 4 groups. According to the statistics obtained; The patients in group 1 (ozonated oil) had the best reduction in wound size and clinical efficacy. This group was followed by group 3, which was supported by treatment with ozonated water. There was no statistically significant difference in both ozone bagging and control groups. As a result, it was observed that in addition to the treatment of skin wounds with tissue loss, ozonated oil or ozonated water accelerated healing by 50% on average.
