Erythrodermic Psoriasis: Excellent Response to Skin Treatment with Ozonated Water, through the Use of a Patented Robotic Therapy System for the Surveillance and Prevention of Hospital Infections

Background: Erythrodermic psoriasis (EP) is a rare, severe variant of psoriasis characterized by widespread erythema, scaling, and systemic complications. Despite advances in systemic treatments, the management of EP remains challenging, particularly in patients with comorbidities or contraindications to standard therapies. Objectives: To evaluate the effectiveness of ozonated water as an adjunctive treatment for EP, delivered using a patented robotic therapy system designed for hygiene and infection prevention in non-self-sufficient patients. Methods: We report the case of a 90-year-old male patient with acute EP who received daily skin treatments with ozonated water in conjunction with supportive care, including rehydration and antibiotics. The intervention was facilitated by the robotic system “COPERNICO Surveillance & Prevention,” which ensured standardized hygiene practices and clinical documentation. Results: Within one week of treatment, the patient showed complete desquamation of necrotic skin, resolution of erythema, and significant metabolic recovery. Fever subsided, renal function improved, and the patient was discharged in stable condition. Follow-up confirmed sustained clinical improvement, and no adverse events were reported. Conclusions: Ozonated water demonstrated efficacy in alleviating the dermatological and systemic manifestations of EP in a high-risk elderly patient. This case highlights the potential of ozone therapy as a safe, cost-effective adjunctive treatment for EP and underscores the utility of robotic systems in managing complex dermatological conditions. Further research is warranted to validate these findings in larger cohorts.

Abstract

Background: Erythrodermic psoriasis (EP) is a rare, severe variant of psoriasis characterized by widespread erythema, scaling, and systemic complications. Despite advances in systemic treatments, the management of EP remains challenging, particularly in patients with comorbidities or contraindications to standard therapies. Objectives: To evaluate the effectiveness of ozonated water as an adjunctive treatment for EP, delivered using a patented robotic therapy system designed for hygiene and infection prevention in non-self-sufficient patients. Methods: We report the case of a 90-year-old male patient with acute EP who received daily skin treatments with ozonated water in conjunction with supportive care, including rehydration and antibiotics. The intervention was facilitated by the robotic system “COPERNICO Surveillance & Prevention,” which ensured standardized hygiene practices and clinical documentation. Results: Within one week of treatment, the patient showed complete desquamation of necrotic skin, resolution of erythema, and significant metabolic recovery. Fever subsided, renal function improved, and the patient was discharged in stable condition. Follow-up confirmed sustained clinical improvement, and no adverse events were reported. Conclusions: Ozonated water demonstrated efficacy in alleviating the dermatological and systemic manifestations of EP in a high-risk elderly patient. This case highlights the potential of ozone therapy as a safe, cost-effective adjunctive treatment for EP and underscores the utility of robotic systems in managing complex dermatological conditions. Further research is warranted to validate these findings in larger cohorts.
