Filter by:There are multiple studies conducted in Pakistan that supports the topic of foot care knowledge among individual with type 2 diabetes but all are descriptive cross-sectional studies and investigators cannot develop cause effect relationship out of it. Secondly, there is a lack of documented research on the foot care knowledge shown by people with T2D residing in the slums of Karachi. In order to assess the knowledge intervention among the individual having T2D through qualified diabetes educators and pictorial educational pamphlet along with the standard care of treatment. Consequently, it may aid in the development of effective methods aimed at mitigating foot-related complications among this specific population. Individuals diagnosed with diabetes are required to engage in proactive and structured self-care activities by providing the foot care knowledge in order to effectively manage their condition and mitigate the risk of potential complications. The incorporation of health-deviation knowledge and activities into routine is crucial.
The rise in diabetes incidence has led to a corresponding increase in diabetes-related complications. Diabetic foot ulcers, a severe consequence of diabetes, have substantial impacts on patients, the social environment, overall well-being, and nursing procedures. Given this context, there is a clear necessity for interventions that motivate patients to adopt beneficial health behaviors and educate them in effectively managing diabetes-related complications. This study seeks to investigate the impact of Watson's motivational interviewing method, which is grounded in the human care theory, on enhancing treatment adherence, self-efficacy, and satisfaction levels among individuals suffering from diabetic foot ulcers. Hypotheses of The Research H0: There is no difference in self-efficacy for diabetic foot care, diabetic foot care behavior, treatment adherence, and satisfaction between individuals with diabetic foot ulcers who receive Watson's human care theory-based motivational interviewing and diabetic foot care education, and those who receive standard education. H1: There is a difference in self-efficacy for diabetic foot care between individuals with diabetic foot ulcers who receive Watson's human care theory-based motivational interviewing and diabetic foot care education and those who receive standard education. H2: There is a difference in diabetic foot care behavior between individuals with diabetic foot ulcers who receive Watson's human care theory-based motivational interviewing and diabetic foot care education and those who receive standard education. H3: There is a difference in treatment adherence between individuals with diabetic foot ulcers who receive Watson's human care theory-based motivational interviewing and diabetic foot care education and those who receive standard education. H4: There is a difference in satisfaction between individuals with diabetic foot ulcers who receive Watson's human care theory-based motivational interviewing and diabetic foot care education and those who receive standard education.
Procenta® has been successful in facilitating closure of non-healing diabetic ulcers in patients where proper wound care management/practice has failed along with other allo- and xenografts. In each individual case study where diabetes mellitus was pathological, unique wound morphologies with high variability in all three dimensions showed significant progress or were fully closed after at least one application of Procenta®. In the present study, the investigators seek to investigate the efficacy of the product over a 90-day treatment time-course with a larger sample size of patients suffering from non-healing wounds due to diabetes mellitus types I or II (diabetes mellitus). As a result, the investigators hope to better understand the potential and limitations of the product under these conditions with the anticipation that a significant number of patients will recover, avoid amputation, and return to a normal daily life.
This is a primary prevention study which aims to assess reduction in the rate of diabetic foot ulcers in patients with high-risk diabetic feet using 3D printed insoles compared to standard care
The goal of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of using mesenchymal stromal cell derivatives (dac-MSCs) in the treatment of chronic diabetic foot ulcers (type 1 and 2) in adults. A third of the participants will receive dac-MSCs and Triticum vulgare (Fitostimoline) in combination, the other third MSCs and Fitostimoline in combination, and the last third only Fitosimoline. This study will be a randomized, blind, and parallel and controlled-group trial.
Leg and foot ulcers due to venous disease or diabetes are chronic wounds that can take 6 or more months to heal. Growth factors have been used to try and improve this healing, however, many such studies have failed, and that is thought to be due enzymes in the wound that degrade the growth factors and prevent them from working. This is a proof of concept study that will evaluate the treatment of chronic leg ulcers with topically applied growth factors that are combined with a therapy to prevent their inactivation in the wound.
