Quantitative Evaluation of Diabetic Foot Wound Healing Using Hydrogel Composite Nanosilver (AgNPs) - Based Dressing Vs. Traditional Dressing: A Prospective Randomized Control Study
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background: The wound dressings perform a crucial role in cutaneous wounds management due to their ability protect and promote dermal epidermal tissue regeneration. Aim: the aim was evaluate effectiveness of using hydrogel/nano silver-based dressing vs. traditional on diabetic foot healing. Methods: Sixty patients with type-2 diabetes hospitalized for treatment were recruited from selected Surgical departments. A prospective randomized control study carried, results showed that percentage reduction rate ulcer by third week as group higher (15.11%) than (33.44%). Moreover, mean ulcers size "sq mm" recognized faster healing (15.11 ± 7.89), considerably lesser comparison (21.65 8.4). Conclusion: hydrogel/nanosilver-based better managing foot. Keywords: Diabetes, Wound, Diabetic ulcer, Wound dressing, Nanomedicine, Nano-silver.

Wound healing and the dressing.
The evolution of surgical dressings is traced from 1600 B.C. to A.D. 1944. The availability of an increasing variety of man-made fibres and films from 1944 onwards has stimulated work on wound dressings, and some of the more important contributions, both clinical and experimental, are discussed. The functions of a wound dressing and the properties which the ideal wound dressing should possess a...
