The Effect of Modern Dressing Using Mix Cadexomer Iodine Hydrogel on Wound Healing Process in WCC Pati

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder due to the pancreas not producing enough insulin or the body cannot use insulin produced effectively. The purpose of this study was to determine whether there is an effect of modern dressing using cadexomer iodine hydrogel mix on the process of DM wound healing in WCC Pati. This type of research uses quasy-experiment with pre-test post test control group design. The sample of this study was 22 people, data collection using the Bates Jansen Wound Assessment Tool. Analysis using the Mann Whitney U Test statistical test. The results of the study showed that the p value of the intervention group was smaller than the p value of the control group so that the administration of the cadexomer iodine mix hydrogel was more influential in the process of DM wound healing compared to the control group that was only given the hydrogel.
