Abstract

This paper proposes an analysis of the healing process of diabetic foot syndrome ulcers based on the correlation between Skin Galvanic Resistance and three blood factors: leukocytes, erythrocytes, and cortisol. The main objective is to observe the reduction in the wound area and relate it to the influence of skin resistance and the chosen blood elements. The experiment consisted of a randomized, double-blind clinical trial separated into two protocols groups: SUS Protocol and Rapha® Protocol. The Control Group received the SUS treatment that consisted of calcium alginate and silver foam dressing. Whereas the Experimental Group performed self-care daily utilizing the Rapha® Protocol. After obtaining the measurements, we plotted the graphs to observe the relationship of each variable. Thereby, it is noticeable that the behavior of the GSR is inversely proportional to the injury area. On the other hand, this suggests that the galvanic resistance may indicate healed skin quality, while the blood factors may impact the healing time.

应用SUS和Rapha方案后糖尿病足部愈合的数学分析

本文从皮肤电阻抗与白细胞、红细胞、皮质醇三种血液因子的相关性分析糖尿病足综合征溃疡的愈合过程。主要目的是观察伤口面积的减少，并将其与皮肤阻力和所选血液成分的影响联系起来。实验包括随机双盲临床试验，分为两个方案组:SUS方案和Rapha®方案。对照组采用海藻酸钙和泡沫银敷料组成的SUS治疗。而实验组每天使用Rapha®协议进行自我护理。得到测量结果后，我们绘制了图表来观察各个变量之间的关系。因此，值得注意的是，GSR的行为与受伤面积成反比。另一方面，这表明电阻抗可能表明愈合的皮肤质量，而血液因素可能影响愈合时间。
