Objective: A case report on the treatment of necrotizing fasciitis with the use of high frequency (HF) generator in a person with diabetes. Methods: This is descriptive study of applied nature developed in an outpatient clinic in Minas Gerais. The patient underwent dressing sessions three times a week for high frequency application. Healing was weekly evaluated using the Pressure Ulcer Scale Healing (PUSH) instrument and Image J software. Results: The area was significantly reduced, which was measured during six weekly evaluations. In the first four evaluations, a progressive reduction of the lesion was obtained in 11.78 cm², that is, 90% of the area. Conclusion: The use of the AF generator was effective in the treatment of necrotizing fasciitis, reducing the lesion area.

This article aims at presenting the model of the mass loss of a brass sample in ultrasonic cavitation field in saline water. The experiments done for data collecting was performed in three scenarios. In the first one, the high frequency generator worked at three power levels - 80 W, at the second one - at 120 W, and in the third one - at 180 W. The Model has been built using the series of the mass loss on surface.
