| diabetic foot ulcer hyperbaric oxygen therapy: The Diabetic Foot Robert Hinchliffe, Matt Thompson, Nicolaas Schaper, Ramesh Tripathi, Carlos Timaran, 2014-09-08 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. These can result in ulceration of the foot which needs careful management to avoid the possibility of amputation. This management is best undertaken by multidisciplinary teams using the latest evidence to support their practice. This book presents a comprehensive and authoritative coverage of the latest evidence-based investigations, techniques and management of the diabetic foot. Evidenced-based management of the diabetic foot International, multidisciplinary team of editors and contributors Comprehensive reference for all health professionals involved in the care of diabetic foot problems |
| diabetic foot ulcer hyperbaric oxygen therapy: Management of Diabetic Foot Complications Clifford P. Shearman, 2015-02-04 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. |

| diabetic foot ulcer hyperbaric oxygen therapy: Atlas of the Diabetic Foot Nikolaos Tentolouris, Panagiotis Tsapogas, Eleftherios Dounis, 2003-07-11 Many foot problems in diabetes can be prevented and often the patients are misdiagnosed, or inappropriately referred or treated. This title will be of immense use to the audience as work of reference. Diabetes mellitus is the lack of insulin leading to uncontrolled carbohydrate metabolism, the breakdown of starches and sugars into smaller units that can be used by the body for energy. Foot ulcers occur in about 15% of diabetic patients in their lifetime and hospital admissions due to foot ulcers are very common. Foot problems mostly occur when there is nerve damage in the feet or when there is poor blood flow. * Contains colour photos and pictures * Examples for identification of the patients at risk for foot ulceration * Prompt diagnosis and treatment. |

| diabetic foot ulcer hyperbaric oxygen therapy: Adjunctive Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for Diabetic Foot Ulcer , 2007 In the US, the prevalence of DFUs in adults with DM is reported to range from 12% to 15%.2,3 Factors in their occurrence include mechanical changes in the conformation of the bony architecture of the foot, peripheral neuropathy, and atherosclerotic peripheral arterial disease, all of which occur with higher frequency and intensity among those with diabetes. [...] Major LEAs are amputations of the leg above or below the knee, whereas minor LEAs involve amputation of the toes or the forefoot.2A study of diabetes-related LEAs in Ontario from 1987 to 1988 found a crude rate of 40 LEAs per 10,000 patients with DM annually.4 There was a wide range among regions in the province (i.e., 30 to 60 per 100,000 annually).4 Major LEAs accounted for 45% of the total.4 LE [...] The standard of care for treating DFU includes the maintenance of optimal blood glucose control; use of débridement, antibacterials, and dressings; administration of antibiotics to control infection; and pressure relief in the areas of the foot that are most subject to weight bearing. [...] The increased pressure, which is associated with the inspiration of high levels of oxygen, increases the level of oxygen dissolved in the blood plasma. [...] In the case of DFU, HBOT treatments would have to result in a reduction in hospital stay of at least 29% in the full capacity scenario, or 62% in the status quo scenario, to yield a favourable hospital cost per benefit ratio.8 5.2 Cost Effectiveness Analysis 5.2.1 Methods A decision model was developed to determine the cost effectiveness of adjunctive HBOT for the treatment of DFU. |
