Abstract

Background: Chronic wounds occur as a result of a failure in the wound healing process and until now have become a health problem that requires proper management. Several types of chronic wounds include venous leg ulcers (VLU), pressure ulcers (PU), diabetic foot ulcers (DFU). The use of wound cleansing fluid is one of the factors that plays an important role in chronic wound healing. Wound cleansing aims to clean the wound from the remains of previous dressings and reduce the number of bacteria. Mineral water is a type of liquid that can be used for cleansing chronic wounds and is easy to gain.Aim: The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of using mineral water as a wound washing fluid in the process of chronic wound healing. The research method was a quasi-experimental without a control group for 20 samples using PUSH (pressure ulcer scale for healing)tool assessment, processing data using the SPSS program with the Wilcoxon test. Result: The study result showed that a mean difference before (12.4) and after (1.9) wound care with mineral water as a wound washing fluid with p-value = 0.000. Conclusion: Mineral water has been proven effective as a wound washing fluid to support the healing process of chronic wounds. Keywords: Mineral Water ; Chronic Wound ; Wound Healing
