Abstract:

Diabetic Foot Ulcers (DFU) are therapeutic challenge to the surgeon. While many dressing options and materials are in vogue, Collagen sponge dressins standout as a reasonably good choice in accelerating the healing of DFU. In this study collagen sponge dressings were tried in 25 patients against control with conventional dressings in equal number of patients. Average age is 58 years with majority falling between 39 to 78 years. Males were three times more. Mean ulcer size is14.1 and 15.6 cms2 in test and control groups respectively; duration being 60.5 days. At the end of 12 weeks ulcers treated with collagen sponge healed in 53.9 days against 69.1 in control group i.e. 22% reduction (P=<0.0001). The number of dressings required are also decreased in collagen group 6.3vs8.8 (P-<0.0001).
