ClinConnect Summary

OBJECTIVE- Infection is associated with poor healing of diabetic lower limb ulcer. Diabetic lower limb ulcer are often lower extremity vascular stenosis or occlusion, poor blood supply, making local ulcer local antibacterial drugs difficult to effectively reach and distribution, resulting in systemic antibacterial efficacy is limited, and easy to induce bacterial resistance at the same time . In recent years, the incidence of clinical multidrug-resistant bacteria increased, increasing the difficulty and cost of treatment.

The current study attempts to identify whether the photodynamic ther...
