Desain penelitian ini adalah kuasi eksperimen, non-equivalent control group dengan pre dan post-test. Sampel berjumlah 6 responden (3 responden untuk masing-masing kelompok intervensi madu serta normal salin-povidone iodine). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan tidak ada perbedaan bermakna pada rerata skor perkembangan proses penyembuhan luka antara sebelum dan sesudah intervensi perawatan luka dengan madu (P = 0.076) dan dengan normal salin-povidone iodine (P = 0,057). Rerata skor perkembangan penyembuhan luka terbuka setelah intervensi tidak berbeda secara signifikan (P = 0,797) antara kelompok intervensi dengan madu dengan kelompok kontrol. Namun, penurunan skor perkembangan proses penyembuhan luka pada balutan madu (11,52%) lebih besar 6,67% dibandingkan balutan normal salin-povidone iodine (4,85%). Perawatan luka dengan madu membuat responden tidak merasa nyeri, tidak terjadi perlengketan serta perdarahan saat membuka balutan ketika dibersihkan, sedangkan dengan normal salin-povidone iodine, responden merasakan sebaliknya. Hasil penelitian ini merekomendasikan penggunaan balutan madu untuk pasien dengan luka terbuka. AbstractThe aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of honey dressing and normal salin-povidone iodine dressing in the open wound healing process at a hospital in Bukittinggi.

Background: Diabetic ulcer is an open wound on the skin layer to the dermis due to hyperglycemia and neuropathy. This condition often causes infection and becomes an inhibitor in the wound healing process. Red fruit oil soap can be used as an alternative cleansing to reduce the number of bacterial colonies and accelerate the wound healing process.Aims: This present study aimed to observe the effect of red fruit oil soap in the cleansing process to reduce the number of bacterial colonies and the wound healing process in grade II Diabetic ulcer patientsMethods: This is a quasi-experimental study with the pre-test post-test non-equivalent control group design. Wound cleansing in the intervention group used 0.9% NaCl solution and red fruit oil soap with a pH of 5.74, while the wound cleansing in the control group used 0.9% NaCl solution. Bacterial colonies were assessed and the type of bacteria was observed by the swab method. The wound healing was assessed with Bates-Jensen Wound Assessment Tool (BWAT) instrument for 14 days with observations every 3 days. Analysis test used Mann Whitney and Repeated Measure ANOVA.Results: There was no difference in the mean of the number of bacterial colonies between the wounds that were cleansed with 0.9% NaCl solution and red fruit oil soap and the wounds which were cleansed by using 0.9% NaCl solution (p> 0.05). The mean of the number of colonies in the intervention group until the 14th day reduced by 3.14x106 and in the control group was reduced h 1.40x106. There was a significant decrease in the wound healing scores in each group, in each assessment for 14 days.Conclusion: This study found that the wound cleansing using red fruit oil soap and 0.9% NaCl solution could reduce the number of bacterial colonies on the wound surface and accelerate the wound healing process among patients with grade II diabetic ulcer.
