Clinical usefulness of acellular dermal matrix combined negative pressure wound therapy in diabetic foot amputee:

摘要

Category:DiabetesIntroduction/Purpose:Negative pressure wound therapies (NPWT) have been useful to prevent further amputation by filling defect with granulation in diabetic foot amputee. However the hospitalized period have been prolonged to complete filling defect with NPWT. There were many efforts to accelerate rate of granulation filling using dermal matrix in NPWT. We hypothesized outcomes of acellular dermal matrix combined negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) can be useful in comparison of exclusive usage of NPWT. The aim of this study was to investigate clinical outcomes of acellular dermal matrix of combined negative pressure wound therapy in DM foot amputee.Methods:This study included 40 patients of 40 ischemic diabetic feet. We divide these diabetic feet into two groups: 20 cases of acellular dermal matrix combined NPWT and 20 cases of exclusive usage of NPWT. We performed the amputation and combined NPWT at a mean age of 50.7 years (26 to 75) with the mean 12 months follow-up between June, 20...
