1 CMBT, DGHS, Bangladesh 2 NCDC, DGHS, Bangladesh 3 Registrar, Apollo Hospitals, Bangladesh Abstract Foot ulcers caused by diabetes are most important causes of limb amputations especially lower limb in Bangladesh. Treatment of foot ulcers by conventional way often causes hospitalization for long periods results in huge burden to many people. Use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) mainly by autologous, that is rich in various growth factors, bear some equivalence to the uniform wound healing. Some studies on human are so far showed the potentiality of PRP as a unique and minimally invasive procedure. We included ten case with non healing diabetic foot ulcers, not responding to conventional treatment modalities, was efficiently treated by PRP. Patients and Methods: This study has included 25 patients of both sex ages from 18 to 60 years, with chronic no healing diabetic foot ulcers. These patients were treated with autologous platelet rich plasma activated by calcium gluconate. Few patients needed 2 times PRP therapy but most of the patients needed just one schedule. Results: Healing rate was much higher in PRP treated group than conventional group. Improvement was visible after 2 weeks in PRP treated group was because angiogenesis required time to generate. Conclusion: Activated autologous PRP therapy is more effective than conventional therapy.
