Limb salvage in severe diabetic foot infection.
BACKGROUND The purpose of our study was to determine the efficacy of a management algorithm that includes negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) in diabetic feet with limb-threatening infection. MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty-five septic diabetic feet were treated with NPWT between 2006 and 2008. After emergent abscess evacuation, early vascular intervention was performed if necessary. Debrideme...
متن کاملRevascularization for foot salvage in diabetic critical foot ischaemia.
A consecutive series of 32 diabetic patients, 16 male and 16 female, who presented to the authors with critical limb ischaemia was reviewed over a two-year period. Atherosclerotic risk factors and co-morbidities were present in 56% of these patients. Diagnostic angiography was performed in all patients. Revascularization was achieved in 91% of the cases with three perioperative deaths. Ten bypa...
متن کاملA comparative study to evaluate the effect of limited access dressing on diabetic ulcers
Aim: Emerging evidence favors the important role of antioxidants, matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), and nitric oxide (NO) in the healing of diabetic wounds. There is a lack of substantial evidence regarding the effects of negative pressure on antioxidants, MMPs and NO in chronic wounds associated with diabetes. Methods: A total of 55 type 2 diabetic patients with leg ulcers were divided into 2 ...

متن کاملWound Healing Potential of Intermittent Negative Pressure under Limited Access Dressing in Burn Patients: Biochemical and Histopathological Study
BACKGROUND Malondialdehyde (MDA) is an oxidant that causes damage to membranes, DNA, proteins, and lipids at the cellular level. Antioxidants minimize the effects of oxidants and thus help in formation of healthy granulation tissues with higher level of hydroxyproline and total protein. This study compared the effect of limited access dressing (LAD) with conventional closed dressing biochemica...
