Overview

For an appropriate secondary prevention, physicians should focus on strategies such as pressure offloading, use of appropriate footwear (such as pressure-relieving footwear), treatment of existing infection and debridement. Early amputation and reconstruction of the damaged vessels could also assist faster wound healing and will prevent further destruction.

Secondary Prevention

The secondary prevention of diabetic foot ulcer includes the following along with the use of primary preventive strategies:[1][2][3][4]

Clinical Trials
