1. A device for disinfecting wound treatment, the device comprising: a housing;a plasma generator arranged in said housing for generating a disinfecting plasma;a flow module arranged in said housing for generating a gas stream, which forms a free jet transporting the disinfecting plasma from said housing;a guide apparatus for guiding the free jet; anda jet control unit controlling said guide apparatus for affecting the free jet in a planned manner by controlling the gas stream generated by said flow module, wherein:said guide apparatus has at least one guide element arranged at a gas discharge opening of said housing, said guide element being variably positionable relative to the housing;said jet control unit controls said guide apparatus by varying a position of said variably positionable guide element relative to the housing for affecting the free jet in a planned manner by controlling the gas stream generated by said flow module; andsaid jet control unit controls said guide apparatus for varying, with the guide apparatus, at least one of a jet cross section of the free jet being discharged from housing and a direction of discharge, relative to the housing, of the free jet being discharged from the housing. 2. A device in accordance with claim 1, wherein said jet control unit controls said flow module including setting the velocity of the gas stream with said flow module. 3. A device in accordance with claim 1, wherein said jet control unit controls the plasma generator including setting the plasma concentration in the gas stream with said plasma generator. 4. A device in accordance with claim 1, wherein said jet control unit comprises a sensor for detecting an actuating variable and said jet control unit controls the gas stream as a function of said actuating variable. 5. A device for disinfecting wound treatment, the device comprising: a housing;a plasma generator arranged in said housing for generating a disinfecting plasma;a flow module arranged in said housing for generating a gas stream, which forms a free jet transporting the disinfecting plasma from said housing;a guide apparatus for guiding the free jet; anda jet control unit controlling said guide apparatus for affecting the free jet in a planned manner by controlling the gas stream generated by said flow module, wherein:said guide apparatus has at least one variably positionable guide element arranged at a gas discharge opening of said housing;said jet control unit controls said guide apparatus by varying a position of said variably positionable guide element for affecting the free jet in a planned manner by controlling the gas stream generated by said flow modulesaid jet control unit comprises a sensor for detecting an actuating variable and said jet control unit controls the gas stream as a function of said actuating variable; andsaid sensor is an ozone sensor, which detects the ozone concentration in the ambient air as an actuating variable. 6. A device in accordance with claim 4, wherein said sensor is a distance sensor, which detects a working distance from a wound area to be treated as an actuating variable. 7. A device in accordance with claim 1, further comprising a light pointer controlled via said jet control unit, said light pointer generating a light pattern on a wound area to be treated, which represents a target area, in which a concentration of the plasma being transported in the free jet is equal to or higher than a desired minimum effective plasma concentration. 8. A device in accordance with claim 7, wherein said light pointer is controlled such that said light pattern generated by said light pointer on the wound area has an inner area representing the target area and an outer area, which surrounds the inner area and which is visually distinguished from the inner area and represents an area in which the concentration of the plasma is lower than the minimum effective plasma concentration and is higher than a tolerable working plasma concentration. 9. A device in accordance with claim 7, wherein said light pointer is a laser light source. 10. A device in accordance with claim 1, wherein said flow module comprises a blower directing the gas stream towards the plasma generator. 11. A device in accordance with claim 1, further comprising a movable ceiling suspension, said housing being arranged on said movable ceiling suspension. 12.
