NCT03574935

Brief Summary

This project is based on investigator team's ten year experience on diabetic ulcer and goes on further developing basic research and concluding clinical experience. The investigator team has recently developed "Remove stasis to generate granulation tissue" into "Remove slough to generate granulation tissue". Investigators have applied the principle of "Remove stasis" in the medium and later stage of treatment to make "Remove slough-Eliminate stasis-Generate granulation tissue" become the basic principle of three-stage sequential treatment. Investigators will further conclude Chinese medicine therapy in the stage of "Qing-Hua-Bu" and evaluate safety, applicability and availability of it. Therefore, the research can help improve clinical diagnosis and treatment technique and transfer the study result of Chinese medicine experience on diabetic ulcer.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Wound healing rate

    To perform the dressing change for wound every day and persist in dressing change for two months. To record dynamic wound healing progress by digital camera. After finishing course, to compare wound healing, pus, exudate, granulation tissues and epithelial tissues and analyze these data by SPSS22.0.

    up to 56 days after treatment

Interventions

External Chinese medicine: For patients in the treatment group, they will accept one of three specific External Chinese medicine according to their lesions and corresponding syndromes: 1. Chinese herb of "Clear heat-Remove dampness-Detoxicate" for patients belong to heat syndrome; 2. Chinese herb of "Activating blood-Removing stasis" for patients belong to stasis syndrome; 3. Chinese herb of "Supplement deficiency-Generate muscles" for patients belong to deficiency syndrome.

Also known as: "Qing-Hua-Bu" Three Dynamic Sequential Therapy
External Chinese medicineExternal Western medicine

For patients in the control group, they will accept one of three specific external Western medicine according to their lesions: 1.Ethacridine Lactate Solution(lesions with much effusion); 2.1% Sulfadiazine Silver Cream(lesions with infection); 3.rb-bFGF(lesions with no slough and look clear).
