Abstract

Background: Diabetes-related foot ulcer (DRFU) is a serious complication of diabetes mellitus associated with delayed wound healing. Therapeutic ultrasound may provide additional benefits alongside standard wound care and controlled dietary management. Objective: This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of adjunctive therapeutic ultrasound in reducing wound surface area in patients with DRFU. Methods: This quasi-experimental, non-randomized pre-test–post-test controlled study was conducted at Kartasura Primary Health Care Center from February to May 2026. Using purposive sampling, 25 patients aged 30–65 years with Wagner grade 1–2 diabetes-related foot ulcers (DRFU) were enrolled and allocated to an ultrasound group (n = 13) or a control group (n = 12). The intervention lasted four weeks. Wound surface area was measured at baseline and post-intervention using manual planimetry by an independent, blinded assessor. Baseline-adjusted analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was used for the primary between-group comparison. Results: Both groups showed significant reductions in wound surface area (p < 0.0001). ANCOVA showed a significantly lower adjusted post-intervention wound area in the ultrasound group than in the control group (5.619 vs. 6.355 cm²; mean difference = 0.736 cm²; p = 0.015; partial η² = 0.240). However, the unadjusted between-group difference in wound area reduction was not significant (2.12 vs. 1.37 cm²; p = 0.159). Conclusion: Adjunctive therapeutic ultrasound was associated with a lower adjusted post-intervention wound area. However, the non-significant unadjusted comparison and the study's non-randomized design and small sample warrant cautious interpretation.

Abstract

Background: Digital communication has transformed hospital-public relationships. Instagram serves not only as a promotional medium but also as a community empowerment platform through health education and two-way communication. Objective: This study aimed to explore the role of Instagram as a community empowerment platform in the process of forming emotional engagement, trust, and hospital image at Assalam Hospital. Methods: This qualitative study used an embedded single-case study design at Assalam Hospital, Indonesia, from April to June 2026. Preliminary non-participant observation of publicly available Instagram content was conducted from February to April 2026. Nineteen participants were selected through purposive sampling: hospital management, PKRS, IT, patients/families, and community health cadres. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, focus group discussions (FGDs), non-participant observation, and document review, and analyzed using Braun and Clarke's Reflexive Thematic Analysis. Results: Cross-source thematic analysis generated six themes: collaborative governance; educational empowerment; meaningful emotional engagement; trust through digital-reality consistency; multidimensional hospital image; and a "Deep but Narrow" pattern. Trust was strengthened by provider credibility, transparency, responsiveness, and consistency between digital information and real services. However, limited human resources, varying digital literacy, misinformation, passive audiences, and low interaction constrained Instagram's broader contribution. Conclusion: Instagram at Assalam Hospital is perceived to support community empowerment, emotional engagement, trust, and hospital image through interactive, context-dependent processes, rather than as a direct causal determinant. Stakeholders shape this digital space according to their distinct roles. For participants already exposed to the hospital's Instagram account, its contribution appears more evident in deepening relationships with specific user groups than in reaching the wider community, reflecting a "Deep but Narrow" pattern.
