Abstract
Diabetes mellitus, more commonly referred to as diabetes, is a dangerous disorder that lasts for an extended period (sometimes known as “chronic”) and develops when elevated levels of blood glucose arise. This is because the body is unable to create any or sufficient amounts of the hormone insulin, or it is unable to make effective use of the insulin that it produces. There are currently around 537 million persons between the ages of 20 and 79 who have been diagnosed with diabetes. This accounts for 10.5% of the global population in this age bracket. Methods research: Solomon’s design technique of four groups serves as the research design. This design decreases the effects of confounding variables and enables the researcher to determine if the pretest itself affects the subject. The Solomon Four Group Test employs a conventional two-group design consisting of a pretest and posttest, with a posttest-only control. The researcher employed several combinations of tested and untested groups as well as treatment and control groups to ascertain that confounding variables and extraneous factors did not influence the outcome. Meanwhile, the control group will receive standard interventions carried out by officers at primary care facilities. Result: electrical stimulation and citrus essential oil will affect the healing process of Diabetic Foot Wounds.
Keywords: Diabetic Foot Ulcer; Electrical stimulation; Citrus essential oil; Wound healing process
