| Résumé : |
- Coordinated care between different levels of care is key in the management of diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) patients.
- An interdisciplinary team approach optimises the evaluation and treatment process of DFU patients and has been shown to improve outcomes such as amputation rates, length of hospital stay and mortality rates. - Early identification and management of risk factors can improve healing and reduce recurrence of DFUs. - Treatment requires a targeted approach involving an interdisciplinary team of experts of doctors, nurses and allied health professionals. - Prevention of DFU involves patients and their relatives and strategies should be instituted at all levels of care and continued in the primary care. |
