N2  - Purpose: To determine the effect of monochromatic infrared energy therapy on patients with pressure ulcers.Methods: Thirty patients (18 males and 12 females) with ages ranging from 55-65 years suffering from pressure ulcer participated in this study.They were selected randomly from Medical Research Insistute and Sharq El Madina  Hospitals during the year 2018, they were randomly divided into 2 groups equal in number, one study Group (A) and a control one (B). The study Group (A) who received the monochromatic infrared energy for 30 minutes every session, application was done 5 times per week for 6 weeks as a total period of treatment in addition to their medical treatment, The control Group (B) who not received the monochromatic infrared energy but they just received standard medical treatment. Measurements: Measuring wound volume with saline and sterilized syringe were conducted before starting the treatment as a first record and at the end of the 6 weeks of treatment as a second (final) record. Results: Result showed that the Monochromatic Infrared energy was effective and fruitful in increasing wound healing in pressure ulcer as evidenced by the highly significant decrease in the wound volume. Conclusion: A clear improvement in the results of wound healing was found in the study group (A) than the control group (B) using the standard medical treatment alone
