Abstract:
The China International Exchange and Promotion Association for Medical and Healthcare ( CPAM) , Diabetic foot branch, published the Guideline for the Diagnosis and Management of Diabetic Foot in July 2017, which provides recommendations for the screening of the patients at risk of diabetic foot, diag-nosis, treatment, and effective prevention of diabetic foot. In this article, we provided a professional inter-pretation and comment on the basis of the guideline as follows: ⑴ The prevention of diabetic foot should give priority to early recognition of the at-risk foot, especially early screening and treatment of diabetic pe-ripheral neuropathy and lower extremity arterial disease;⑵The treatment of diabetic foot ulcers should take multidisciplinary cooperative therapy, including off-loading, debridement, anti-infective therapy, and im-proving blood supplement if necessary;⑶ Ultimately, the goal of treatment is to prevent the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, and reduce amputation rate, disability rate and mortality.
