Recent developments in sources of low-temperature atmospheric plasma have expanded their applications in medicine, leading to the establishment of the field of “plasma medicine”. In the first half of this paper, the clinical studies conducted to date on wound treatments using low-temperature atmospheric plasmas are summarized. In the second half, several issues in plasma medicine are discussed from the viewpoint of plasma engineering. A comparison of different plasma sources and the monitoring of plasma conditions are highlighted. Moreover, the necessity of developing standards in order to expand the application of low-temperature atmospheric plasmas in medicine is discussed.

低温大气等离子体源的最新发展扩大了其在医学中的应用，从而导致了“等离子体医学”领域的建立。在本文的上半部分，总结了迄今为止对使用低温大气等离子体进行伤口治疗的临床研究。在下半年，从血浆工程学的角度讨论了血浆医学中的几个问题。重点介绍了不同血浆来源的比较和血浆状况的监测。此外，讨论了制定标准以扩大低温大气等离子体在医学中的应用的必要性。
