Abstract
Objective: The aim of the present research is to compare the effectiveness of autologous platelet gel with conventional technique for epithelialization and wound reduction in chronic wounds. Methods: The out-patient who attended on regular basis for the treatment or those who were admitted as inpatients for the management of chronic wounds in a tertiary care teaching hospital from October 2019 to October 2021 were included in the study. A total of 120 patients were examined; 60 cases received betadine dressing for chronic wounds and 60 cases were randomly selected for investigation with autologous platelet gel. Results: Autologous platelet gel demonstrated quicker and better rates of healing in the present study. In the study group, the mean area wound reduction was statistically significant. The study group has no negative side effects or responses from using autologous platelet gel. Conclusion: This study provided solid evidence that autologous platelet gel dressings are a safe and affordable way to speed up the healing of chronic wounds while lowering hospital costs and morbidity.
