Abstract Objectives Previous studies have shown that diabetic foot ulcers are principally associated with improper self-care. Since appropriate self-care is essential to prevent foot-ulcers, any factors which can predict behavior should be identified. However, until now, data and predictors of foot-care in Indonesia remain unclear since such on Indonesian patients very limited. Therefore, the purpose this study was investigate identify its Indonesia. The design cross-sectional. Cluster...

It is important to assess the cultural beliefs and practices of diabetic patients since such greatly influence how self-manage disease. However, affect self-management in Javanese Indonesia still unclear research about it very limited. Therefore, purpose this study was explore diabetes patients.

Introduction: To date, no specific therapeutic drug has been approved to target SARS-CoV-2. Hence, it remains a major challenge decide what potential regimens treat COVID-19 patients. This study aims investigate curcumin and virgin coconut oil (VCO) effects on cytokine levels (IL-1β, IL-2, IL-6, IL-18, TNF-α, IFN-β) in Methods: was single-center, controlled trial with parallel Arm or Randomized Clinical design. A total of sixty patients admitted the Universitas Sebelas Maret Hospital,...

Abstract Background It is well known that diabetes mellitus (DM) affects health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in both younger (aged 18–64 years) and older adults ≥ 65 years). However, to date, no study has compared HRQOL its predictors between with DM Indonesia. Such a comparison important because the results can guide nurses clinicians establish evidence-based educational programs are specific suitable for patients. Therefore, aim this was investigate difference Methods A cross-sectional...

Clinicians and wound care nurses in Indonesia usually use Nigella sativa oil (NSO) gel aloe vera (AV) to treat diabetic ulcers. However, there are no studies directly comparing the effects of NSO AV gels on healing, so it is unknown which these 2 plants better at promoting healing If comparative efficacy between was known, would be important evidence favoring clinical one or other product Indonesia. The aim this study investigate compare effectiveness a rat model This experimental involved 3...

ABSTRACT Deep‐tissue injury (DTI) is a unique type of pressure ulcer (PU) in which deep‐tissue damage expands outwards to the superficial skin. DTI progresses rapidly into severe PU, despite initially appearing as only bruise or darkened tissue Although some detection methods are available, there currently no strategy for treating deteriorating DTI. This study investigated efficacy vibration therapy preventing deterioration through down‐regulation hypoxia‐inducible factor‐1 matrix...

Background: Diabetic foot ulcer will cause a reduction in quality of life (QOL), high care burden, and even mortality. An assessment QOL associated factors patients with diabetic is important to provide evidence for establishing plan program such patients. However, up the present, there no published study that investigates its Indonesia.Purpose: The purpose this was investigate each domain condition.Methods: design cross-sectional study. total sample 55 data were collected using Foot Ulcer...

The evaluation of the skin state when it is healthy at time examination, but predisposed to disease, based solely on subjective assessment clinicians. This may vary from moment and rater rater.We focused texture aimed develop a new method evaluate integrity elderly using digital image, by verifying reliability clinical image specialists create 'gold standard,' analyzing identify indices that explain condition as evaluated specialists.A total 208 images were collected 34 subjects. And then we...

Abstract Deep tissue injury (DTI) is difficult to detect in the early phase. Creatine phosphokinase (CPK) as a muscle enzyme could represent promising indicator of DTI. However, serum CPK levels reflect systemic condition rather than local wound environment. Wound exudates can be indicative This study aimed investigate usefulness an Rats were divided into control, 6 hours 10‐kg and 20‐kg loading groups. Serum samples obtained before wounding, at 8 12 hours, 1, 2 3 days after while exudate on...

Assessment of blood circulation in pressure ulcers can be beneficial for predicting the severity tissue damage and making prognosis. Here, we evaluated usefulness laser speckle flowgraphy (LSFG) assessing skin flow pressure-induced ischemic wounds rats comparison with temperature measurements by thermography, which is commonly used clinical settings. The was assessed 3 groups (control, 1 kg loading, 10 loading hours), before, immediately after, on days 1, 2, after loading. induced more...

The prevalence of diabetic foot ulcer in Indonesia is far greater than the global prevalence. Nursing students are expected to have good knowledge and positive attitudes regarding care order deliver high-quality wound during clinical practice. This study aimed assess nursing students' toward investigate factors related them. A cross-sectional was conducted on 396 academic phases three schools from September 2021 February 2022. Participants completed a survey including questionnaire about...

Abstract Deep tissue injuries ( DTI s) can become significant problems because of their rapid deterioration into deep pressure ulcers. Presently, no animal model has been developed. By concentrating and shear stress in tissues while minimising the overlying skin, we produced an effective rat deterioration. Two‐dimensional finite element method FEM ) simulated distribution under several pressure‐loading conditions. showed that concentrated with minimum skin could be created by using a...
