A critical appraisal of "Effect of electrical stimulation on chronic leg ulcer size and appearance"

The study "Effect of Electrical Stimulation on Chronic Leg Ulcer Size and Appearance"� was one of the first studies to look at electrical stimulation (high voltage pressure currents) on chronic diabetic, arterial, and venous insufficiency wounds. It was a well-developed randomized controlled trial. Upon reviewing this article, I found that it had an intriguing introduction that explained the reason for the study well, a methods section designed in a manner that could be repeated by most clinicians, a results section that included statistically significant results, and an easy-to-read discussion that linked it back to other similar studies. Overall, this study was well conducted, and the paper was well written.
