Abstract:
Diabetic foot refers to lower limb infection, ulceration and/or deep tissue destruction caused by complicated neuropathy and various degrees of lower extremity vascular disease in patients with diabetic foot. Diabetic foot is one of the main chronic complications of diabetes, which is characterized by long course of disease, difficulty to cure, high psychological burden, high economic burden, high disability rate and high mortality rate and therefore poses a severe threat to the quality of life and prognosis of patients with diabetes. Silver-containing dressings are a new type of wound antibacterial dressing that has been successfully used in the treatment of a variety of wounds. This article tries to review the progress of the application of silver ion dressings in the treatment of diabetic foot.
