What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Autologous Platelets Rich Plasma TreatmentOther

    For PRP preparation 10 mL of the patient blood was collected. The blood was centrifuged at 2000 rpm for 5 min to obtain plasma. Then, this plasma was centrifuged at 3000 rpm for another 5 min to collect platelets. Platelets were diluted in 5 mL plasma to form PRP.

  • Conventional Saline dressingOther

    saline dressing of diabetic wounds will be done
