Abstract:
Objective To observe the effect of Aquacel AG dressing in treating diabetic foot and nursing measures.Methods Seventy-nine hospitalized patients diagnosed as diabetic foot were enrolled,and 45 of them were chosen randomly as the experimental group,who was treated with Aquacel AG dressing,and changed the dressing per 3 to 5 days.The other 34 patients were named as the control group,who was treated with normal cotton dressing by wet compress,and changed the dressing one time per day.The total effective rate and healing condition were compared between the two groups.Results The total effective rate of the experimental group was 93.3％,higher than that of the control group (79.4％) significantly.The healing time of the experimental group was (64±10)days,shorter than that of the control group,(88±12)days.Conclusions Aquacel AG dressing was suggested to use in treating diabetic foot.
