Core Tip |
That a comprehensive treatment protocol for diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) yields superior outcomes compared to standard treatment. The protocol involving interventions for improving blood circulation, debridement, vacuum-sealing drainage, growth factor dressing, and skin grafting, resulted in faster wound healing, reduced amputation rates, and enhanced quality of life. These findings underscore the importance of implementing a comprehensive treatment approach to DFU management to promote granulation tissue growth, shorten hospital stays, alleviate pain, and improve wound healing. In this study, patients who received comprehensive treatment experienced significantly better wound healing rates, shorter healing times, and lower amputation rates than those of patients who received standard treatment. |
