CABG surgery is commonly used in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases in diabetic patients. This treatment procedure causes severe pain and large sores in the sternum of diabetic patients. The effect of Aloe Vera’s plant on healing of the wound and reducing the pain of the surgical wound in patients was investigated. 60 patients from the diabetic patients, who referred to Imam Ali Hospital in Kermanshah for CABG operation, were randomly divided into two groups of intervention and control groups. Wound healing was evaluated on days 4, 7, and 14 after operation and daily washing with % Aloe Vera ointment, by means of Bates-Jensen wound healing scale. The amount of pain was evaluated with Visual Analog Scale (VAS) on days 3, 4, and 7 after intervention. SPSS 16 was used to analyze the data. In this research, in order to describe the methods, descriptive statistics including frequency distribution, mean, standard deviation, and in relation to the objectives and research fields and the homogeneity of the samples Chi-square and independent T-test were used. The mean and standard deviation of the total score of wound healing was compared between the two groups on days 7 and 14 after dressing were P <0001, which shows the significant difference between the healing of two groups. The rate of healing was more in Aloe Vera group. The present study shows that using Aloe Vera ointment for at least 3 days reduces the pain of the surgical wound and at least 1 week of using Aloe Vera ointment promotes the healing of surgical wound in diabetic patients.
