Diabetes is an important risk factor for atherosclerosis. The diabetic foot is characterized by the presence of arteriopathy and neuropathy. The vascular damage includes non-occlusive microangiopathy and macroangiopathy. Diabetic foot wounds are responsible for 5-10% of the cases of major or minor amputations.

All three of these risk factors are present in 65% of diabetic foot ulcers. Calluses, edema, and peripheral vascular disease have also been iden...
متن کاملMuscle perfusion scan for prediction of anticipated diabetic foot ulceration
Introduction:We evaluated the performance of muscle perfusion scan (MPS) to assess muscle perfusion reserve (MPR) for prediction of incident diabetic foot ulcerations (DFU). Methods: We recruited 41 diabetic patients without any history of DFU. Five mCi 99mTc-MIBI was injected intravenously during repetitive dorsal and plantar right foot flexions. T...
متن کاملWound Measurement in Diabetic Foot Ulceration
In this chapter the authors aim to provide a brief introduction to wound assessment in the diabetic foot and discuss the role of wound measurement within that assessment process. A literature review describing wound measurement in diabetic foot wounds was conducted and a review of wound measurement tools and techniques reported. The results of a wound measurement study using a particular techni...
