Abstract:
The results of the treatment of 140 patients with diabetes mellitus complicated with purulent process are analysed. The vulnerosorption with polyphepan was used in 68 patients. Polyphepan is a natural polymer obtained from a technical lignin. The method of vulnerosorption with polyphepan is described. Positive dynamics of the local inflammatory process, shorter cleaning of the wound and the time of granulation were demonstrated. The use of the wound sorption provided the decrease of the hospital stay by 13.7 + 0.2 days.
