A total of 5718 patients in 42 clinical studies showed, that the duration of healing from acute trauma (injuries, biopsy, episiotomy, angioplasty, laser, cheiloschisis-operations, nasal operations, plastic surgery, cosmetic surgery, dental surgery, ankle joint-distortions and blunt injuries of soft tissues) were reduced by 20% to 25% with Enzyme-Therapy. This means a quicker recovery time and the period of inability to work is considerably shorter. Enzyme-Therapy has shown to have anti-edematous, anti-inflammatory, and analgesic effects. In addition enzyme therapy supports the reduction of the haematoma, inhibits extreme scar formation, and enables the patient to quickly restore a temporarily impaired function of the damaged extremity. A very important benefit of Enzyme-Therapy is that it has practically no side effects.
Enzyme-Therapy is not as good as NSAIDs in pain reduction because Enzyme-Therapy needs more time to act. Therefore in painful injuries, etc. it is advisable to start with Enzyme therapy + analgesia.

Disease	Clinical studies	Patients
Post-op edema	16	1625
Episiotomy	4	437
Hematomas	8	954
Injuries, surgery	23	2474
Sum	42	5718

Enzyme-Therapy is used prophylactically by marathon runners, skiers, football players, karate fighters, and other people with sportive activities to reduce time of convalescence after injuries.
Enzyme-Therapy may also facilitate muscle healing and allow a faster restoration of contractile tissue function after intense exercise (Miller 2004). Enzyme-Therapy is often administered because it’s anti-edematous, fibrinolytic and analgesic effects during the postoperative period in osteosyntheses of the long bones (Kamenicek 1999),
Enzyme Therapy is used in patients before and after surgery to avoid edema and seroma development. With Enzyme Therapy the number of analgesia necessary is reduced.

42 clinical studies including 5718 patients demonstrate the benefit effect of Enzyme-Therapy after injuries and surgeries.
