Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Wound closure rate. Timepoint: Wound healing rate after 1, 7, 14, 28, 60. Method of measurement: Wound size is evaluated using a 3D digital wound imaging device with image processing software.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Amputation rate. Timepoint: The amount of amputation after 1, 7, 14, 28 days. Method of measurement: Tissue size.;Skin edema. Timepoint: The amount of skin edema after 1, 7, 14, 28 days. Method of measurement: Reduction of swelling and accumulation of fluids with the weight grading system for skin size results in +1 to +4. It is evaluated by applying pressure on the damaged area and then measuring the depth of the pit (with a ruler) and its duration (return time). Degree of +1 to 2 mm indentation, setting the return time using a timer.;Infection. Timepoint: The rate of infection after 1, 7, 14, 28 days. Method of measurement: Bacterial culture.
