| Description | Diabetic foot syndrome is defined as the involvement of the tissues of the foot distal to the ankle in patients with diabetes caused by diabetes and its complications, i.e. diabetic neuropathy and varying degrees of ischaemia. The diabetic foot syndrome may manifest itself typically as ulceration of the foot or partial gangrene, but also in less obvious ways, e.g. as osteomyelitis of the bones of the foot or phlegmon, or as neuropathic Charcot osteoarthropathy, which is characterised by deformities that may not develop in the acute early stage. The clinical guideline addresses the prevention and treatment of patients with diabetic foot syndrome and includes the following clinical areas: Prevention of diabetic foot syndrome including specific instructions for patients Interventions for wound prevention and treatment including surgical interventions and debridement Complications, particularly related to peripheral arterial disease and infections Classification systems used Implementation of recommended practice guidelines Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version) |
