Comparison of platelet‐rich plasma gel in the care of the pressure ulcers with the dressing with serum physiology in terms of healing process and dressing costs
International Wound Journal Mar 29, 2020
Uçar Ö, et al. - Researchers conducted this prospective randomised controlled experimental study for comparing the impacts of platelet‐rich plasma (PRP) gel and gas dressing with serum physiologic applied to stage II pressure ulcer in coccyx of patients for 2 months on healing process and dressing costs. This investigation was performed with 60 patients hospitalised in the palliative care unit after surgery. The experimental group (n = 30) was dressed with platelet‐rich plasma gel and the control group (n = 30) was treated with serum physiologic dressing. The authors discovered that PRP gel had a positive effect on healing of stage II pressure ulcers with platelet‐rich plasma gel dressings. Moreover, it was concluded that platelet-rich plasma gel is readily accessible and less expensive than serum physiological dressing when measured in the long term.
