- W2040871289 abstract "Diabetes mellitus is a condition that commonly causes chronic complications that can affect the feet. Nurses must be aware that diabetic feet are vulnerable to ulceration that, if untreated, will predispose the sufferer to serious morbidity and possibly life-threatening consequences. As nurses in most areas of practice will encounter people with diabetes, it is important that all nurses have a basic understanding of the risk factors leading to serious foot problems. Objectives the objectives of this paper are to: (1) raise awareness amongst nurses of the importance of diabetic foot care, and to outline steps that they can take to help promote healthy feet in this client group; (2) outline how to do an initial inspection of a diabetic foot; (3) indicate when to refer for help; and (4) describe the basic principles of managing foot problems and the need for urgent action as being important if more serious ulceration and ultimately possible amputation of a limb is to be avoided. Method this paper will review literature to outline the main problem areas, and associated assessment and management principles to help inform nurses about this important part of clinical practice. Articles referring to ‘assessment and management of diabetic feet’ were sought using a hand search of key journals in a large academic library. Conclusion this information, if applied, will help increase the effectiveness of foot-care management. All nurses can play a role in helping people with diabetes avoid problems that can eventually lead to loss of lower limbs." @default.
