Determining the effect of local insulin administration on wound healing in diabetic patients who underwent surgery
Design
Clinical trial, with parallel groups, double-blind, randomized, phase 3 on 40 patients
Settings and conduct
The current study is a randomized clinical trial that will be conducted on patients referred to Al-Zahra and Shahid Beheshti hospitals to perform laparotomy with Feinstein's standard incision. Controls will be distributed to the patient in sealed envelopes that are coded.

Randomization description
Random sequence is prepared by biostatistics specialist and using excel software, a random table for 40 patients is provided to the researcher. The randomization is based on 4 random blocks because we have two groups of comparisons. Ten blocks of 4 that will be prepared using the sequence table. The allocation of participants is done using concealment with the method of closed envelopes. In this method, the sequence table designed in the previous section is used. Because of the type of intervention (is known), there is no possibility of blindness.
