Default Current trends in podiatric treatments of the diabetic foot

Podiatry Arena members do not see these ads
I have been given the opportunity to speak about podiatry to a group of health care providers working with diabetes. They also want me to talk about new research regarding the neuropathic foot and latest trends in treatment of diabetes ulcers. As I mainly work at the Uni with biomechanics/msk I would appreciate any suggestions on recent research on this topic.
The wow-factor is always valued…

Kind regards

check out this article in Podiatry Today.

http://www.podiatrytoday.com/essenti...ic-heel-ulcers

Seems like some good info as I scanned it.

There some discussion on V.A.C. dressing as well which was on the podiatry today front page.

Hope that helps

EDIT just saw this if you want to get a good biomechancis knowledge into the discussion as well.

Hey Bjorn,

Why not play to your strengths (and probably a diabetes workers weakness) by giving it a biomechanics slant as much as you can within reason?

I've attached some articles to give you an idea of the kind of direction I'm talking about. (Why make life unecessarily hard for yourself right?)
