Learning objectives
Be able to discuss the epidemiological
importance of DFI
Know how to assess risk of diabetic foot
ulceration and infection
Be able to assess a patient with a diabetic foot
infection, in the context of published
guidelines, and make rational antibiotic choices
General epidemiology
252 million diabetics worldwide
General epidemiology
252 million diabetics worldwide
Foot problems account for largest number of
hospital bed days used for diabetic patients
1-4% of diabetics develop foot ulcer annually, 25%
in lifetime
45-75% of all lower extremity amputations are in
diabetics
85% of these preceded by foot ulcer
Two-thirds of elderly patients undergoing
amputation do not return to independent life
Studies have shown less costs for saving a limb cf.
amputation

Conclusions
Ulceration is a common consequence of diabetic
neuropathy
To understand and treat ulceration, understand the
pathophysiology and biomechanics
Infection (DFI) is a common and frequently serious
consequence of diabetic foot ulceration (DFU)
A structured approach to assessment and
treatment, using international or local guidelines,
provides a means to rationalise care and improve
outcomes
Care must be multidisciplinary to achieve this;
agreed pathways, health service management and
audit are required
Does it need
antibiotics, doctor?
