Journal Title: Міжнародний ендокринологічний журнал - Year 2015, Vol 8, Issue 72
Abstract
We have performed surgeries in 31 patients with diabetes mellitus complicated by diabetic foot syndrome of neuropathic and neuroischemic origin. The study group consisted of 11 men aged 60.50 ± 1.50 years and 20 women aged 70.95 ± 1.45 years on the average. The control group included 30 patients. Groups were representative by the age, gender and comorbidity. All patients underwent amputation of the phalanges using the proposed method. In the treatment of wounds in patients of the study group, we have used sorbents in combination with ultrasonic cavitation and applying a vacuum dressing to the wound. In the control group of patients, we have used dressings with antiseptic solutions and ointment dressings during the treatment of wounds. The length of stay in the hospital before the plastic closure of the wound defect averaged 15.50 ± 1.12 days in patients from the study group, and 24.42 ± 0.13 days — in the control group patients.
