Download or read book Management of Diabetic Foot Complications written by Clifford P. Shearman and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-02-04 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Public and political concern about the increasing prevalence of diabetes has prompted major concern about treatment of patients with the condition. Foot complications are some of the commonest causes of hospitalisation of people with diabetes and if not treated well often lead to amputation. There is evidence that 85% of these amputations can be prevented by better understanding of the problem and by multi-disciplinary teams working more effectively together. This has been recognised and NICE have recently published guidelines on diabetic foot complications as have Diabetes UK and NHS Diabetes. These have been successful in raising awareness of the problem but the local multi-disciplinary teams need clear practical advice on how to manage the foot in diabetes and deliver high quality care. With the current interest in improving outcomes for patients with foot complications this is an ideal time to make a practical evidence-based handbook available. This book will provide clear practical guidelines on how to manage all aspects of the foot in diabetes as well as an in-depth analysis of the most recent evidence. The book will be based on care pathways with algorithms for each section so it would be of practical value in any clinic in primary or secondary care. It will appeal to a wide range of health care professionals treating people with diabetes: vascular surgeons and trainees, orthopaedic surgeons, diabetes specialist nurses, podiatrists and tissue viability nurses.

Book excerpt: The incidence of diabetes is increasing both in the western world and in developing countries; type 2 diabetes increase is partly the result of greater obesity. Diabetes can cause two major problems to the foot – diabetic neuropathy resulting in nerve damage and peripheral vascular disease reducing the flow of blood.

Download or read book Clinical Care of the Diabetic Foot written by David G. Armstrong and published by American Diabetes Association. This book was released on 2015-12-15 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The third edition of Clinical Care of the Diabetic Foot has been fully revised and updated, and continues to be the essential handbook on foot care and the treatment of the diabetic foot. The diabetic foot is typically the victim of nerve damage, micro- and macrovascular disease, and faulty healing, mechanisms that without proper care can lead to amputation. More than 80,000 diabetes-related amputations are performed in the United States each year, but non-specialist primary care providers, as well as residents, nurses, and diabetes educators, can help prevent this devastating, life-altering, and expensive complication. Healthcare professionals and medical students alike will find that this concise, well-indexed, and updated guide offers practical advice on detecting and managing diabetes-related foot complications.

Download or read book Diabetic Foot written by Felix Jebasingh K and published by Jaypee Brothers Medical Publishers. This book was released on 2022-10-31 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diabetes can limit blood supply to the feet resulting in loss of feeling, which means foot injuries do not heal well and may go unnoticed. People with diabetes are 15 times more likely to have a limb amputated due to gangrene. Diabetic foot is an often overlooked complication in general diabetes care. This book is a practical guide to the management of diabetes-related complications of the foot. Beginning with an overview of diabetic foot care, anatomy and biomechanics of the foot, and peripheral neuropathy, the following sections cover a variety of diabetes-related disorders. Each condition is explained in detail covering its pathophysiology, investigations, diagnosis and treatment, including surgery and rehabilitation where appropriate. The final section discusses recent advances and future techniques and technologies in the management of diabetic foot. The text is further enhanced by algorithms and diagrams to assist understanding of potential treatment strategies.

Download or read book The Diabetic Foot written by Aristidis Veves and published by Springer. This book was released on 2007-11-06 with total page 559 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has been more than 4 years since the first edition of The Diabetic Foot was published. Over this period of time, it has become absolutely clear that diabetes is becoming a pandemic that challenges the health care resources of all societies, from the developing ones to the most advanced. It is therefore not surprising that diabetic foot disease is still a major problem and, if anything, is growing in size rather than coming under control. One positive development is that our knowledge of the pathophysiology of foot pr- lems in diabetes has considerably expanded. Furthermore, it has been realized that impairment in wound healing is associated with pathways that are related to the dev- opment of cardiovascular disease, both in the micro- and macrocirculation. In The Diabetic Foot: Second Edition, we have tried to keep the spirit of the first edition, which is to give the interested reader a full view of diabetic foot disease and to emphasize the need for a multidisciplinary approach in its management. As with the first edition, we have relied on the long tradition of the Joslin-Beth Israel Deconess Foot Center, one of the oldest and most experienced diabetic foot centers. We have also tried to emphasize new developments in basic and clinical research that we hope will be translated to clinical practice in the future.
