Abstract
Different aspects of plasma medicine, the new branch interdisciplinary between plasma chemistry and medicine, are considered. It was shown that complex biological processes in living tissues and bodies can be controlled, stimulated, catalyzed, and diagnosed with the use of low-temperature, atmospheric-pressure air plasma. It was found that discharge plasma can produce the desired therapeutic effect in wound sterilization and healing, as well as in treatment of some skin diseases. The action of plasma is harmless for the human body under definite conditions and exerts a targeted, nondestructive therapeutic effect.
