The Use of Additional Software in the Treatment of Patients With Surgical Hand Infection and Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus

Introduction. A comparative analysis of the treatment of 98 patients with purulent inflammatory diseases of the hand and insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus in the early postoperative period using traditional methods and special software was carried out. The high efficiency of the software in the selection of surgical access for the early cleansing of an infected wound and shortening the time of hospitalization is shown.

The purpose of the study. To evaluate the clinical effectiveness of using software to select the optimal surgical access in patients with surgical hand infection and type 1 diabetes mellitus.

Materials and methods. A clinical study was conducted based on the treatment of 98 patients with purulent inflammatory diseases of the hand and diabetes mellitus. The study was conducted in the early postoperative period prospectively and retrospectively.

Results. Studies have shown the high efficiency of using special software in the preoperative period in order to select the optimal surgical access and further combat pain syndrome, edema and improve microcirculation and, as a result, create favorable conditions for wound healing and reduce the time of hospitalization.

Conclusion. The use of special software in the preoperative period in patients with surgical infections of the fingers and hand in the presence of type 1 diabetes mellitus allows you to choose the optimal surgical access to further improve lymph outflow and microcirculation, more effectively combat edema, pain syndrome, which are important elements of a favorable course of the wound process.
