Heart sounds teletransmission is very important in telemedicine.The heart sounds are transmitted to the server which has been accessed to internet in custody center based on GPRS,then doctors analyze the heart sounds and transmit the conclusion to the consumer.

To explore the clinical characteristics, risk factors and factors affecting the severity of the disease in patients with diabetic foot at the current stage through a multi-center cross-sectional survey.
 Methods: Clinical data of 326 patients with diabetic foot (205 males and 121 females) from 13 general hospitals nationwide were collected from October to November 2017 using a unified clinical data collection table. The clinical characteristics were analyzed, and the influential factors for severe diabetic foot were analyzed by logistic regression analysis.
 Results: Among 326 patients with diabetic foot, 68.4% of the patients were more than 60 years old, and 60.1% of the patients received primary or junior high school education; 96.3% of the patients developed Type 2 diabetes; 80.1% of patients had glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c)≥7%; 60.1% of patients suffered dyslipidemia. Improper wearing of footwear (38.5%) is the main cause of diabetic foot. Diabetic neuropathy (76.7%), diabetic retinopathy (62.3%) and lower limb vascular disease (57.4%) were the most common complications. Logistic regression analysis showed that diabetic nephropathy, diabetic lower extremity vascular disease, and HbA1c levels were independent risk factors for severe diabetic foot, and receiving foot care education can be regarded as a protective factor.
 Conclusion: The diabetic foot occurs mostly in male patients, and Type 2 diabetes with older age, lower education level, poor glycemic control and dyslipidemia are the risk factors. Diabetic nephropathy, diabetic lower extremity vascular disease, HbA1c, and receiving foot care education are independent influential factors for the severity of diabetic foot.
