An interventional study of The D-Foot method and Conventional foot screening in Diabetic Foot, sponsored by Sahlgrenska University Hospital. Completed at 1 site in Sweden. Open to participants aged 18 Years and older. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2022-05-05.
Sponsored by Sahlgrenska University Hospital · Not applicable, Interventional, and Diagnostic
Early identification of potential risk factors for the onset of diabetic foot ulcers are recommended. However, in a Swedish context, there has been no standardised routines to be used in the foot screening procedure. In this study a new standardised routine, the D-Foot, will be tested at the Department of Prosthetics and Orthotics. The usability of the web program will be tested.
The primary research questions are"how do patients with diabetes perceive the foot screening?" and "do the perception differ in the group that was foot screened by the use of the D-Foot compared to the group that was foot screened with conventional methods?"
1,054 studies on the registry are indexed under Diabetic Foot; 222 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 111 is above the median of 60 across 826 interventional studies indexed under Diabetic Foot.
