ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the treatment effect of negative pressure wound therapy ( NPWT) followed by ultrasonic debridement surgical system ( UDSS) in patients with diabetic foot. Methods Forty-seven diabetic foot ulcer patients( WagnerⅡ~Ⅲ) were divided into two groups,of which 26 patients treated with UDSS combined NPWT,and 21 patients treated with traditional surgical debridement combined NPWT were control group. Cure rate, markedly effective rate and adverse reaction and complication were compared between two groups. Results Compared with control group,the experiment group had higher markedly effective rate in the first week(P<0. 05),and healing rates were higher in the 2th,4th,6th,12th weeks (P<0. 05). There were no differences in the adverse reactions and complications between the two groups. Conclusion UDSS combined with NPWT can accelerate wound cure,may play an important role for the treatment of diabetic foot ulcer.
