Abstract

Abstract Background: Diabetic ulcers are wounds that take a long time to heal, and the risk of infection increases if they do not receive proper wound care. Objective: This study aims to determine the management of diabetic ulcer wound care. Methods: This research employed an explanatory case study design, implementing Evidence-Based Practice (EBP). The sample size consisted of two participants. The techniques used included interviews, observation, physical examination, documentation, and standard operating procedures (SOPs) for conventional wound care using honey. Results: Conventional wound care using honey was carried out for 3x24 hours and the results showed that diabetic ulcers experienced better changes as evidenced by the results, namely reddish wounds, no pus, no swelling, wounds appeared moist, and blood sugar results in both patients decreased. Conclusion: This study concluded that low glucose levels can accelerate the healing of diabetic ulcers. Conventional wound care using honey can also accelerate the healing of diabetic ulcers.
