Research Abstract |
This study aims to clarify the effect of bubble foot bathing. 30 diabetic patients and 10 diabetic nephropathy patients participated in the study for preventive care against diabetic foot. We divided the patients randomly into two groups : one group who did bubble foot bathing and the other group who did hot-water foot bathing for three months. We compared the effect of bubble foot bathing group and hot-water foot bathing group. We measured up the subcutaneous blood flow in feet at the dorsum of the feet of all patients using a Laser Speckle Imaging each month. We found out that bubble foot bathing were more effective at increasing blood flow in feet than hot-water foot bathing (p<0.05). There were not significant differences between the two groups in subjective judgment such as effect in relieving coldness of feet, break in the skin, and willingness to continue their foot bathing.
