We appreciate the careful review of the commentators regarding our study and the study by Leffmann and colleagues, both studying the effects of pulsed, direct microcurrent stimulation on the acceleration of normal wound healing. Both Dr Snyder-Mackler and Dr Robinson recognized the degree of control applied to both of these studies, and both commentators carefully articulated the similarities and differences between the procedures followed in the two studies. Based on the findings from these two controlled studies using two different sets of characteristics for microcurrent stimulation with two different animal models and two different wound models, both commentators concluded that there was no evidence of accelerated wound healing in healthy, surgically induced soft tissue lesions treated with pulsed, direct microamperage current....
