简要总结
This study is a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to evaluate outcome after toe amputation due to diabetic foot infection. Aim of this RCT is to evaluate wound healing and functional outcome based, whether wound is closed or left open. As a part of this study, emerging technology of thermal imaging is evaluated as a possible tool to predict complication after amputation.
详细描述
Patients with diabetes undergoing toe amputation due to infection, are recruited for this study. Based on randomization, wound is either closed or left open during the amputation procedure. If primary closure is not possible (e.g. deep abscess) and patient is randomized to closed group, delayed closure is performed when feasible. Patients are followed up in outpatient clinic 3 month after amputation. Primary outcome is wound healing that is evaluated during follow ups in the outpatient clinic. Functional outcome is evaluated with PROM questionnaires preoperatively and during the follow up.
