Objective To explore comprehensive nursing intervention strategies and their efficacy for patients with diabetic foot ulcer. Methods A controlled study was conducted on 62 patients treated in our hospital from August 2023 to August 2024. All samples were diabetic foot ulcer patients. Patients were randomly divided into two groups using a random number table: one group (control group) received routine nursing care, while the other group (observation group) received comprehensive nursing intervention. The two groups were compared in terms of wound healing time, length of hospital stay, quality of life score, blood glucose control level, and nursing satisfaction. Results The observation group showed shorter wound healing time and shorter length of hospital stay, indicating that comprehensive nursing intervention could effectively shorten the recovery period (P<0.05). In terms of quality of life score, the observation group receiving comprehensive nursing intervention achieved significantly higher scores (P<0.05). Comparing the blood glucose control levels under different nursing interventions, the observation group exhibited fasting blood glucose and 2-hour postprandial blood glucose levels closer to the normal range (P<0.05). The observation group also showed greater satisfaction with the professionalism and service quality of nursing staff (P<0.05). Conclusion Comprehensive nursing intervention holds significant value for patients with diabetic foot ulcer, effectively promoting wound healing, shortening hospital stay, improving blood glucose levels, and enhancing patient satisfaction and quality of life. It is worthy of clinical promotion.
