Abstract

Background: Diabetes Mellitus (DM) has become a prevalent disease, imposing a significant burden on public health due to its widespread occurrence and association with numerous disabilities and fatalities. Uncontrolled DM can lead to severe metabolic complications and long-term vascular issues, including microangiopathy and macroangiopathy. Additionally, individuals with DM are highly susceptible to foot infections, which can escalate into gangrene if not properly managed. Purpose: This study aimed to determine the risk factors for diabetic foot ulcers in patients with Type II Diabetes Mellitus at the Hospital Infatil e Maternidade Jardim Amalia Methods: The research employed an analytical survey method with a case-control study design. Purposive sampling was utilized to select a total of 134 participants, comprising 67 individuals in the case group (those with diabetic foot ulcers) and 67 in the control group (those without diabetic foot ulcers). Data collection was conducted using a structured questionnaire, and the results were analyzed using the Odds Ratio (OR) test to identify significant risk factors. Findings: The findings of the study indicated that age is a risk factor for developing diabetic foot ulcers in patients with Type II DM, with an OR of 3.15 (95% CI: 0.43-17.216). The duration of diabetes also emerged as a significant risk factor, with an OR of 3.13 (95% CI: 0.62-14.12). Furthermore, foot care practices were identified as a crucial risk factor, with an OR of 4.13 (95% CI: 0.72-12.45). Conclusion: this study demonstrates that age, the length of time a patient has had diabetes, and their foot care routines are significant risk factors for the development of diabetic foot ulcers in patients with Type II Diabetes Mellitus at Hospital Infatil e Maternidade Jardim Amalia. These findings underscore the importance of early intervention and targeted patient education to mitigate these risks and improve patient outcome

Abstract

Background: Diabetes mellitus is a health problem due to insulin deficiency or insulin resistance that causes high blood glucose. A frequent complication is diabetic ulcer, which is a condition of partial or complete tissue deformity. If it does not get proper treatment, it is very risky to get an infection that leads to amputation.Diabetes Mellitus (DM) has become a prevalent disease, imposing a significant burden on public health due to its widespread occurrence and association with numerous disabilities and fatalities. Uncontrolled DM can lead to severe metabolic complications and long-term vascular issues, including microangiopathy and macroangiopathy. Additionally, individuals with DM are highly susceptible to foot infections, which can escalate into gangrene if not properly managed. Purpose: To determine the effectiveness of modern dressing in the wound care process on diabetic wound healing. Methods: Data collection used descriptive analysis and literature study. The databases used were PubMed, CINAHL, ProQuest and Web of Science. Journal inclusion criteria used PICO and article analysis was conducted by 6 authors. Findings: The evaluated article's findings elucidate the patient's degree of comfort and the more important healing process. It has been demonstrated that contemporary wound care applications make patients feel more at ease as their wounds heal, greatly aiding nurses in nursing care. Modern wound care is a practice that will evolve in response to advancements in nursing science; in this instance, it centers on how comfortable patients are while obtaining wound care-related medical treatments. Therefore, nurses must advance the knowledge behind the use of contemporary wound care to promote patient comfort and hasten the healing process. Conclusion: Modern wound care enhances patient comfort and accelerates healing, greatly supporting nursing practice. With evolving knowledge in nursing science, nurses need to master these methods to maximize patient comfort and recovery in wound care

Abstract

Background: Cigarette consumption inhibits wound healing as nicotine and carbon monoxide interfere with blood flow, oxygenation, and immune function, increasing the risk of infection and prolonging wound recovery time. Purpose: To determine the effectiveness of modern dressing in wound care on diabetic wound healing. Methods: This study used a cross-sectional model to observe two groups: smokers (with a history of cigarette use) and a control group (non-smokers). Using purposive non-probability sampling, 9 smokers and 9 non-smokers meeting research criteria were selected, all undergoing elective surgery with sterile wounds. Data were analyzed with Spearman Correlation using SPSS version 12 Findings: The study involved 20 respondents, split evenly between smokers and non-smokers. Among the smokers, 48% were in the productive age group, and 68% consumed more than 10 cigarettes daily. All smokers use filtered cigarettes. Regarding wound healing, 79% of respondents experienced slow healing, 11% had optimal healing, 7% had standard healing, and 3% had rapid healing. Spearman Correlation test results indicated a significant relationship between smoking and wound healing time (p < 0.05), suggesting that cigarette consumption adversely affects the wound healing process. Conclusion: Smoking raises the risk of post-surgical infections, wound dehiscence, and delayed healing by causing inflammation, vasoconstriction, reduced oxygen delivery, and impaired cell recruitment. This highlights the importance of pre-surgery smoking cessation and further research to better quantify these effects and improve pre-operative treatments.

Abstract

Background: Colostomy globally affects not only physical but also psychological aspects in patients, and has been done for various reasons such as cancers of the colon and rectum. Tissue integrity disorders, irritations, and pain come up and require close service to care by nursing interventions and education for these conditions, especially in old patients. Purpose: The goal of this study was to evaluate the management and outcomes of stoma care in patients after colostomy surgery who were seen with tissue integrity disorders. Methods: The case-study approach was implemented into two male patients aged 76 and 80 years who were diagnosed with proximal rectal cancer and were given double-barreled colostomy treatment at Vila Alpina Hospital in São Paulo. Nursing intervention was on stoma care during cleaning and monitoring stoma characteristics as well as educating patients and their families on stoma care. Data were collected and analyzed over 3 days, while evaluation of outcome was done at tissue integrity and pain levels. Results: After the intervention of 3 days, partial improvement in tissue integrity was observed. The physical condition of both patients with normal tissue perfusion, absence of infection signs or bleeding, and partial developmental progress was seen in stoma wound healing. In addition, pain reduction was observed from a level of 4 to 2. However, healing was not fully achieved within the study period because of its short observation time. Conclusion: Nursing care considering observation, education, and therapeutic interventions will have improved outcomes of stoma and will also alleviate pain in colostomy patients. Further interventions of care and education to the patient will follow up these conditions for a long time.

Abstract

Background: Chronic wounds such as leg ulcers are great socioeconomic burdens. Besides, these wounds become very unbearable with hypoxia. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) has emerged as one of the most laudable treatment approaches to this problem and has improved the delivery of oxygen to wounds. Purpose: To review HBOT's effects on chronic wound healing considering its clinical applications, mechanisms of action, and benefits for patient outcomes. Methods: A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted according to the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. Eight authors independently searched five databases (CINAHL, ProQuest, PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Wiley) for studies published between September 2019 and July 2024. Results: The literature cites that HBOT improves the healing of wounds by improving tissue oxygenation, stimulating the synthesis of collagen, and inducing angiogenesis. The studies show that HBOT reduces healing time, particularly in the case of diabetic wounds, and lowers the rates of amputation and infection. HBOT, mechanistically, mediates tissue repair by modulating reactive oxygen and nitrogen species and boosts vascular endothelial growth factor levels, enhancing graft survival and overall wound healing. Conclusion: HBOT is an excellent adjunct to therapy against chronic wounds that respond poorly to treatment. Better healing outcomes, fewer complications, and better quality of life for chronic wound patients could be accomplished by including this aspect in standardized protocols for wound care.
