Optimizing Diabetic Ulcer Management: A Multidisciplinary Approach
Diabetic ulcers are a major threat to the quality of life of the patients and an effective treatment should consider the increased levels of complexity due to the interrelations between physiology, biochemistry and biomechanics.
Pathophysiological Considerations
Diabetic ulcers result from a complex interplay of pathophysiological processes including:
- Loss of peripheral neuropathy and sensory impairment
- Manipulated biomechanics and altered pressure distribution.
- Treatment paradigms must be individualized
Impaired wound healing and tissue repair can be devastating to both the patient and the surgeon. In general, many factors contribute to impaired healing of wounds in surgical patients. A knowledge of normal wound healing is helpful in understanding how these factors cause impairment.
Our wound care team, composed of specialists from different fields of medicine, applies a holistic approach by combining:
- Application of advanced biological products in order to support the therapy and enhance healing processes as well as organ regeneration.
- Use evidence-based wound care protocols and dressings.
- Use off-loading and pressure redistribution
