Background: Diabetic foot (DF) is one of the most common and serious chronic complications of diabetes. At present, there are many dressings used in the treatment of the diabetic foot. Among them, silver dressings are widely used, but the conclusion has not yet been formed. The purpose of this study is to search for relevant studies on the treatment of DF with silver dressings through evidence-based medicine methods and to draw conclusions with higher levels of evidence to provide a basis for the clinical treatment of DF. Methods: Computer search of databases such as CNKI, SinoMed, VIP, Wanfang, PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library. The search time is from the establishment of the database to January 23, 2021. Two researchers will independently select studies, collect data, and assess the methodology quality by the Cochrane risk of bias tool. The meta-analysis will be completed by RevMan 5.3 software. Results: This systematic review will provide an assessment of the current state of DF, aiming to assess the efficacy of silver dressings for patients with DF. Conclusion: This systematic review will provide a credible evidence-based for the clinical treatment of DF with silver dressings.
