IF THEY ARE TREATED LIKE THIS-IT IS NO BETTER……

The Diabetic Foot Collection of foot problems which occur more commonly in diabetic patients Collection of foot problems which occur more commonly in diabetic patients

MAJOR ISSUES DETERMING SURGICAL OUTCOME & HEALING INFECTION INFECTION VASCULARITY VASCULARITY NEUROPATHY NEUROPATHY DEFORMITIES DEFORMITIES EXTENT OF SURGERY AND DRESSINGS EXTENT OF SURGERY AND DRESSINGS AGGRESSIVE DEBRIDEMENTS VS AMPUTATIONS AGGRESSIVE DEBRIDEMENTS VS AMPUTATIONS PREVENTIVE AND PROPHYLACTIC SURGERY PREVENTIVE AND PROPHYLACTIC SURGERY PREVENTIVE SOCIETAL PROGRAMS PREVENTIVE SOCIETAL PROGRAMS INNOVATIVE FLAPS OFFLOADING DEVICES MODIFIED SHOE COUNSELING

Aetiology of the Diabetic Foot Neuropathy Reduced response to infection Ischaemia Deformities & trauma Infection Infection
17
METICULOUS PHYSICAL EXAMINATION OF FOOT AND FOOTWEAR
19
Proper examination
21
NEUROPATHY,ISCHAEMIA, DEFORMITY, PRESSURE POINTS, ULCERATION, INFECTION, TOXAEMIA,MULTI ORGAN FAILURE.
25
EXAMINATION INCOMPLETE WITHOUT PROBING
27
Common deformities ignored: i. Callus ii. Bunion iii. Hammer toes iv. Claw toes v. Charcot foot vi. Nail deformities Examination of foot is not complete without examination of Footwares Examination of foot is not complete without examination of Footwares 1
28
Neuropathic Foot Changes Clawing/Retraction of minor digits Atrophy of plantar fatty pad Restricted ROM of joints Muscle wasting Warm feet Changes to joint alignment Skin anhydrosis
29
Charcot Arthropathy High Index of suspicion Diabetic Hot / red / swelling Trauma - minor / major Pain + / - Architectural Disruption Ulcer + / -
30
BASIC DIFFERENCE IN REACTION OF TISSUE IN DIABETICS AND NON DIABETICS IN RESPONSE TO TRAUMA OR INFECTION DIABETICS RESPOND BY NECROSIS AND THROMBOSIS WHILE NON DIABETICS RESPOND BY INFLAMMATION

INVESTIGATIONS BIOASTHESIOMETER

PRESSURE STUDIES The Foot Scan The Mat Scan The Foot Scan The Mat Scan
34
PEAK PRESSURE PLOT
35
Red: High Pressure Blue: Low Pressure Heel pressure reduced, contact time increased Hallux: Contact time below average range. Peak Pressure at 40 PSI Hallux: Contact time increased to average range while pressure is reduced to 30 PSI Pressure Distribution Without and With Orthotic
36
Diabetic Vascular Disease Large vessel disease common early age of onset rapid progression Microvascular disease presence in limbs controversial retinal and renal lesions common
37
Assessment of Foot Perfusion Subjective palpation of pulses Objective Doppler pressures (ankle/brachial index) toe pressures
38
NB:ABI unreliable in diabetes/renal failure/ rheumatoid arthritis/leg swelling
40
Toe Pressures
41
Better predictors of wound healing Diabetics Diabetics toe pressure<40mmHg toe pressure<40mmHg skin perfusion pressurehealing very unlikely skin perfusion pressurehealing very unlikely 40 to 60mmHg healing likely
42
Diabetic Foot Infection Polymicrobial - gram (+) cocci, gram (-) bacilli and anaerobes Redness and swelling may not be present Suspect if deterioration in glycaemic control Unusual foot pain with no fracture etc

WHAT NOT TO DO?
48
Aggressive VS Limited Limited debridement debridement
50
CHANGE YOUR PERCEPTION STILL THERE IS HOPE………… CHANGE YOUR PERCEPTION STILL THERE IS HOPE…………
51
Aggressive debridement Debridement must be thorough and include all dead tissue. Tendons are best cut under tension to allow them to retract away from the open wound. Look for evidence of pus coming down tendon sheaths this indicates more extensive debridement.
52
This might have to be done several times but when indicated it must be done promptly…..

Diabetic Foot Sepsis Surgical principles Drain pus urgently / immediately Xray foot Assess perfusion Debride necrotic tissue Revascularise early if required MRI useful to assess soft tissues
92
If ischemia present it must be corrected If ischemia present it must be corrected OR OR measures to treat infection/neuropathy measures to treat infection/neuropathy will fail will fail
93
The concept of small vessel disease is erroneous and has no place in management of diabetic foot The concept of small vessel disease is erroneous and has no place in management of diabetic foot Distribution similar to atherosclerosis Distribution similar to atherosclerosis Foot arteries almost always spared Foot arteries almost always spared
94
Management - Medical ↓ Progression of disease ↓ Progression of disease Stop smoking Rx predisposing factors Foot care Treat Depression-Expert counseling of Patient and relatives. Treat Depression-Expert counseling of Patient and relatives.

Impaired vasodilation in neuropathic lower extremity leads to functional ischemiaImpaired vasodilation in neuropathic lower extremity leads to functional ischemia Which improves considerably but is not completely corrected with successful bypass grafting surgery.Which improves considerably but is not completely corrected with successful bypass grafting surgery. Thus, these patients may still be at high risk for foot ulceration or failure to heal despite adequate correction of large vessel blood flow.Thus, these patients may still be at high risk for foot ulceration or failure to heal despite adequate correction of large vessel blood flow.

Concept of supermicrosurgery, introduced by Koshima et al, 1 has increased the popularity of perforator flaps and lymphatic surgery. 1 It is now possible to anastomose smaller- caliber vessels and perform microvascular dissection of vessels ranging from 0.3 to 0.8 mm in diameter. This is required for most distal digital amputations.

HYPOTHESIS GF have many activities that make them attractive agents for stimulating tissue repair. They attract cells into the wound, stimulate their proliferation, and have profound influence on extracellular matrix deposition. Hundreds of studies have demonstrated that growth factors can augment all aspects of tissue repair in normal and impaired healing models.

GF APPLICATION occasionally led to statistically significant improvements in tissue repair, but whether the results are clinically significant is debatable.
