OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effectiveness of local injection of autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in treatment of diabetic foot ulcer. METHODS: >0.05). The frequency of treatments and hospitalization day in all groups and the total amount of PRP application in groups A and B were recorded. The wound healing condition was recorded during the treatment, and the wound healing rate was calculated at 3 months after the first debridement. RESULTS: <0.05). CONCLUSION: PRP can effectively promote the repair of diabetic foot ulcer. The effectiveness of local injection of PRP is superior to the local coverage.
