One hundred patients with non-healing wounds of more than six weeks' duration were studied for clinico-epidemiological factors and their correlation with healing time. The majority of subjects were aged 30-59 years; those aged 50 and over had significantly delayed healing. Most of the subjects were farmers and physical labourers. Leprosy was the most common cause of non-healing wounds, followed by diabetes, trauma and venous ulcers; the lower limbs were the most common site of involvement. Diabetic wounds were more common in those aged 40 years and above. Diabetic wounds were slower to heal than others. The time to healing was calculated from the day subjects received treatment advice at the wound clinic. Seventy-five of the study group were included for calculation of healing time. The others were lost to follow-up or excluded for other reasons.
对100例伤口持续不愈合超过6周的患者进行了临床流行病学因素及其与愈合时间相关性的研究。大多数受试者年龄在30 - 59岁之间;50岁及以上的患者愈合明显延迟。大多数受试者是农民和体力劳动者。麻风病是伤口不愈合最常见的原因,其次是糖尿病、创伤和静脉溃疡;下肢是最常受累的部位。糖尿病伤口在40岁及以上人群中更为常见。糖尿病伤口比其他伤口愈合更慢。愈合时间从患者在伤口诊所接受治疗建议之日起计算。研究组中有75例被纳入愈合时间的计算。其他患者失访或因其他原因被排除。
