One of the leading causes of impaired chronic wound healing is diabetes mellitus because it involves many factors that influence the physiopathology of tissue healing. Therefore, it is strategic to analyse clinical cases of this population. We presented a clinical case report of a 51-year-old female with type 2 diabetes mellitus, presenting a non-healing sternal wound after open heart surgery. Appropriate dressing and assessment contributed to the healing of the sternal wound in 5 weeks.
导致慢性伤口愈合受损的一个主要原因是糖尿病,因为它涉及到许多影响组织愈合生理学的因素。因此,分析该人群的临床病例具有重要意义。我们报告了一例 51 岁女性 2 型糖尿病患者的临床病例,该患者在心脏直视手术后出现胸骨伤口不愈合。适当的敷料和评估有助于在 5 周内愈合胸骨伤口。
