Application of the 5A Nursing Model Combined with Xianglei Tangzu Ointment in a Diabetic Patient with Plantar Skin Injury: A Case Report
This article summarizes the individualized nursing experience in the care of a patient with type 2 diabetes mellitus complicated by plantar ulceration. The patient presented with a large ruptured bulla on the left plantar region, and wound culture identified multidrug-resistant Staphylococcus lugdunensis. Centering on the 5A nursing model, an integrated intervention was implemented that combined specialized wound management, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)-characteristic nursing care, and rehabilitation training, with risk prevention and control ensured through the 4R crisis management framework. Following 43 days of intervention, the wound achieved complete healing, accompanied by improvements in glycemic control, foot sensation, and psychological status. No adverse complications occurred, and follow-up revealed no new-onset foot injury, indicating a favorable prognosis.
