Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effectiveness of local injection of autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in treatment of diabetic foot ulcer. METHODS: Between October 2017 and October 2018, 90 diabetic foot ulcer patients who met the selection criteria were randomly divided into 3 groups: PRP injection group (group A, PRP was injected and hydrogel dressing covered the wounds), PRP covered group (group B, PRP gel and hydrogel dressing covered the wounds), and the control group (group C, hydrogel dressing covered the wounds), 30 cases in each group. There was no significant difference in gender, age, injured side, disease duration, preoperative glycosylated hemoglobin, wound size, and Wagner grading between groups (P>0.05). The frequency of treatments and hospitalization day in all groups and the total amount of PRP application in groups A and B were recorded. The wound healing condition was recorded during the treatment, and the wound healing rate was calculated at 3 months after the first debridement. RESULTS: The frequency of treatments in groups A, B, and C were (10.2±0.8), (11.4±0.6), (12.5±0.5) times, respectively. The total amount of PRP application of groups A and B were (306±24) and (342±18) mL, respectively. There was no significant difference in the frequency of treatments and the total amount of PRP application between groups (P>0.05). The hospitalization days of groups A, B, and C were (40.5±1.8), (62.1±2.3), and (88.6±1.4) days, respectively, showing significant differences between groups (P<0.05). In the course of treatment, the necrosis and exudation of the wounds gradually reduced, the areas of wounds gradually reduced; and the above conditions of group A were significantly better than groups B and C, and group B was better than group C. At 3 months after the first debridement, the wound healing rates of groups A, B, and C were 93.2%±0.8%, 52.1%±1.1%, and 21.3%±1.3%, respectively, with significant differences between groups (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: PRP can effectively promote the repair of diabetic foot ulcer. The effectiveness of local injection of PRP is superior to the local coverage.
