Scientific supervisor: V.P. Shevchenko<br>Treatment of purulent-necrotic wounds against diabetes is particularly complicated, due to violation of intra-cellular metabolism, low regenerative potential and tendency to spread. Unsatisfactory results leads to the search for new factors of modern treatment. Experimental and clinical studies proved the effectiveness of high-power CO2 laser with purulent necrotic wounds in diabetics, due to strong bactericidal and coagulating action, minimal trauma surrounding tissue, and local immune-modulating effect.

Лікування гнійно-некротичних ран (ГНР) у хворих на синдром діабетичної стопи (СДС) відрізняється особливою складністю у зв’язку з їх низьким регенеративним потенціалом і рефрактерністю до загоєння. В останні роки активно вивчається можливість використання стовбурових клітин з метою стимуляції регенеративних процесів в таких ранах. Оптимістичні результати отримані при використанні мезенхімальних стовбурових клітин (МСК), виділених із червоного кісткового мозку.

Complications of type 2 diabetes mellitus are one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality around the world. Diabetic foot infections remain one of the major complications leading to a leg loss every 3 seconds due to amputations causing mental trauma and distress. In diabetic foot ulcers aerobes, anaerobes and fungus often interact with each other and form biofilms which is difficult to treat, enhancing antimicrobial resistance and lead to a non-healing ulcer. Co-existing peripheral vascular disease and neuropathy exacerbate the problems. In T2DM patients’ minor cuts and wounds, often le

Abstract:
Background: Screening for Diabetic Foot Ulcers in the primary care setting can lead to good outcomes for patient and prevent diabetic foot ulcers. Annual screening can detect high-risk patients who are more prone to develop foot ulcers. These patients should then be screened with every visit to prevent a major complication of diabetes, which is a diabetic foot ulcer. Objective: To promote foot examinations in the primary care setting for patients with diabetes who are at high risk of developing a diabetic foot ulcer. Design: A quantitative methodology applying a quality improvement (QI) mo

A print copy of this title is available through the UO Libraries under the call numbers: KNIGHT RD756.42 .E83 2007<br>Partial foot amputation is becoming more prevalent and costly and if not treated correctly can lead to higher levels of amputation. Despite this, partial foot orthotic research and development has been inadequate. Furthermore, in order to contribute to improved orthotic management, there is a need to understand the biomechanical discrepancies during gait. Biomechanical goals of orthotic fitting include normalizing the three functional impairments of the

Abstract:
Diabetic Foot Disease (DFD) costs the Australian healthcare system $1.6 billion annually. A type of DFD is Diabetic Foot Osteomyelitis (DFO) which is a bone infection. Diagnosis of DFO currently involves an initial X-ray of the foot examined by a clinician, but due to the poor accuracy of this technique (68.91% sensitivity; 77.99% specificity), in many cases, a second[1]line approach is required. Typically, suspicion needs to be confirmed with more time consuming and expensive methods, such as probe-to-bone test or MRI (95.76% sensitivity; 81.79% specificity), which slows down treatment acquis

Abstract:
Diabetes is a condition that can lead to foot ulcers that often progress to amputation of a limb. Providing patients with education about foot care is crucial because it can help to prevent or minimize the incidence of foot ulcer development and amputation of a limb. Foot care education as a strategy not only empowers patients with proper foot care knowledge and skill to support and motivate self-care but can also enhance the partnership between the provider and patient. The purpose of this quality improvement project was the implementation of a sustainable evidence-based foot care program for
