The association between skin blood flow and edema on epidermal thickness in the diabetic foot.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Skin blood flow plays an important role in maintaining the health of the skin. The development of interstitial edema may impede oxygen diffusion to the skin. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association of skin blood flow and edema and epidermal thickness in the feet of people

Efficacy of magnetic resonance imaging in diagnosing osteomyelitis in diabetic foot ulcers.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND The clinical diagnosis of osteomyelitis is difficult because of neuropathy, vascular disease, and immunodeficiency; also, with no established consensus on the diagnosis of foot osteomyelitis, the reported efficacy of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in detecting osteomyelitis and

[Vacuum-assisted therapy for various wound types including diabetic foot ulcer].

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Vacuum is a noninvasive system that creates a localized controlled negative pressure environment. In this study, vacuum was provided by the V.A.C. Therapy system, which promotes wound healing by delayed primary or secondary intention through creating a moist wound environment, preparing

The Use of Best Practice in the Treatment of a Complex Diabetic Foot Ulcer: A Case Report.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Published guidelines for effective management of diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) include total contact casting (TCC). The purpose of this case study is to describe the application of best practice guidelines for the treatment of a diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) in a complex patient where TCC

Early revascularization after admittance to a diabetic foot center affects the healing probability of ischemic foot ulcer in patients with diabetes.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE There is limited information about whether time from recognition of decreased perfusion to revascularization affects the probability of healing in a patient with a diabetic foot ulcer. The aim of the present study was to examine whether time to revascularization after referral to a

Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy in treatment of diabetic foot ulcers. Long-term follow-up.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND The cause of diabetic foot ulcers is multifactorial, e.g., neuropathy and angiopathy, leading to functional disturbances in the macrocirculation and skin microcirculation. Adequate tissue oxygen tension is an essential factor in infection control and wound healing. Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO)

Quantitative Studies of Diabetic Foot Ulcer Evolution Under Treatment by Digital Stereotactic Photography.

Only registered users can translate articles

Imaging the lower extremity reproducibly and accurately remains an elusive goal. This is particularly true in the high risk diabetic foot, where tissue loss, edema, and color changes are often concomitant. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the reproducibility of a novel and

Acute pulmonary edema after microsurgery: two case reports.

Only registered users can translate articles

Postoperative management procedures after microsurgery are well-established. Usually, maintaining an adequate plasma volume will lower blood viscosity and will provide an adequate arterial inflow to keep the replantation or the flap viable in routine microsurgical procedures. But if the patient's

Surgical complications associated with primary closure in patients with diabetic foot osteomyelitis.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to determine the incidence of complications associated with primary closure in surgical procedures performed for diabetic foot osteomyelitis compared to those healed by secondary intention. In addition, further evaluation of the surgical digital debridement for

MRI evaluation of bone marrow changes in the diabetic foot: a practical approach.

Only registered users can translate articles

One of the most important roles of magnetic resonance (MR) in imaging of the diabetic foot is to differentiate between the common and often comorbid pathologies that present with abnormal bone marrow signal. The primary diagnostic challenges in this setting are to distinguish osteomyelitis from

[Symptomatology and diagnosis of the diabetic foot].

Only registered users can translate articles

In the diabetic foot, the vascular component was recently considered as the most important in its pathogenesis. The contribution of the neuropathy was under evaluated, most of the time. However, in the last few years, the neuropathic modifications rank first and the micro- and macro-angiopathies are

[Role of magnetic resonance imaging in the study of patients with diabetic foot syndrome].

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To give the results of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in patients with complicated diabetic foot syndrome (DFS) to rule out or identify osteomyelitis. METHODS Twenty-seven (14 women and 13 men; mean age 60 ± 12.2 years) with type 1 and 2 diabetes mellitus and suspected osteomyelitis that

[Possibilities of a software-based hybrid single photon emission computed tomography/magnetic resonance imaging in the diagnosis of complicated diabetic foot syndrome].

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To give the results of a software-based hybrid single photon emission computed tomography/magnetic resonance imaging (SPECT/MRI) in detecting osteomyelitis (OM) in patients with diabetic foot syndrome (DFS). METHODS Seventy-six patients (35 men and 41 women) (mean age, 59.4 +/- 7.1 years)

[Impact of the local application of collagen on the activity of reparative processes in the lower extremity soft tissue of patients with diabetic foot syndrome].

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To estimate of the rate of reparative processes in the lower extremity (LE) soft tissues of patients with diabetic foot (DF) syndrome in the local application of collagen-containing dressings (CCD) versus standard medical therapy. METHODS The clinical (sizes, tissue oxygenation),

Acute pulmonary edema secondary to hyperbaric oxygen therapy.

Only registered users can translate articles

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) has been shown to be effective in the treatment of diabetic ulcers, air embolism, carbon monoxide poisoning and gas gangrene with minimal adverse effects. Very few cases of HBOT causing acute pulmonary edema (PE) has been described; with a study on dogs suggesting
