Gel with HPβCD-I complex
"Initially, the pressure ulcer was cleaned with saline. With the aid of a paper ruler, the ulcer was measured and photographed, as the ruler included the date and the initials of the patient. After measuring, a quantity of 5 grams of gel with hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin complexed with insulin (HPβCD-I) was placed on the pressure ulcer and covered with sterile gauze and a transparent film.~The curative was changed once a day during the treatment period, unless there was leakage of fluid, contamination, or signs of infection. Every three days the pressure ulcers of all patients were measured and photographed again, resulting in a total of six measurements per patient. The photos of pressure ulcers were evaluated for measurement of pressure ulcers and any kind of irritation."

Control gel
"Initially, the pressure ulcer was cleaned with saline. With the aid of a paper ruler, the ulcer was measured and photographed, as the ruler included the date and the initials of the patient. After measuring, a quantity of 5 grams of control gel was placed on the pressure ulcer and covered with sterile gauze and a transparent film.~The curative was changed once a day during the treatment period, unless there was leakage of fluid, contamination, or signs of infection. Every three days the pressure ulcers of all patients were measured and photographed again, resulting in a total of six measurements per patient. The photos of pressure ulcers were evaluated for measurement of pressure ulcers and any kind of irritation."
