One adjuvant therapy that can enhance wound healing is Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT), but there is no established guideline regarding the dosage. In Indonesia, there has been no study comparing the energy density of LLLT on diabetic ulcer healing</em><br><em><strong>Methods:</strong> This is an experimental study on 28 subjects with a randomized diabetic foot ulcer. Group A received standard treatment of ulcer and LLLT 5J/cm2. Group B received standard treatment of ulcer and LLLT 10J/cm2.</em><br><em><strong>Results:</strong> The difference in wound size between group A and group B were 4.15 mm2 and 7.5 mm2 (p=0.178). The healing rate of group A and group B were 4.15 (-10-34.5) mm2/4 weeks and 7.5 (-2.8-34) mm2/4weeks (p=0.168).&nbsp;</em><br><em><strong>Conclusions:</strong> There was no statistically significant difference between the group receiving LLLT 5J/cm2 or 10 J/cm2 in diabetic foot ulcer healing.</em></p&gt;}, number={2}, journal={Journal Of The Indonesian Medical Association}, author={Darmaputri, Purwitasari and Nusdwinuringtya, Nury and Murdana, Nyoman and Tarigan, Tri Juli Edi and Friska, Dewi}, year={2020}, month={Mar.}, pages={16-22} }
