The clinical and cost analysis of laser therapy for healing hard-to-heal leg ulcers: a self-control service evaluation study

In this study, class IV laser therapy demonstrated promising outcomes in the treatment of LUs by improving wound healing. However, more large-scale, randomised controlled trials are required to create standardised techniques and fully comprehend the long-term benefits and disadvantages. The cost analysis indicated positive cost-saving results based on the patients within the study. However, these cost-effectiveness estimates are based on very small numbers and so further research is needed with a larger sample.
