Peripheral arterial disease and diabetes
ثبت نشده
چکیده
In 2007 the IWDGF produced a consensus document on peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in diabetes. In recent years new techniques and technologies have been introduced in treating PAD, which might be relevant for the patient with diabetes and a poorly healing ischemic foot ulcer. The editorial board of International Working Group on the Diabetic Foot (IWDGF) therefore established in 2009 a multidisciplinary working group. This working group included specialists in vascular surgery, interventional radiology, cardiology, internal medicine and epidemiology on the diagnosis and treatment of PAD in diabetic patients with a foot ulcer. The aims of this multidisciplinary working group was to produce a systematic review on the efficacy of revascularization procedures in diabetic patients with a foot ulcer and PAD. This document was approved by all representatives but one of the IWDGF in 2011. Moreover a short progress report on diagnosis and prognosis was produced by the working group. Based on these documents the working group formulated specific guidelines. In this electronic document of the IWDGF the following texts on diabetes and PAD can be found:

Prevalence of Peripheral Arterial Disease in Diabetic Patients
Objective: Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) is a state characterized by atherosclerotic occlusive disease of lower extremities. Diabetes is the main risk factor for PAD. Material and Methods: To assess the prevalence of PAD, a cross sectional study was performed on 352 diabetic patients who referred to Yazd diabetes research center from 2007 to 2010. Vascular assessment was done by measuring ...
متن کاملDiagnosis, Prognosis and Treatment of Peripheral Vascular Disease in Patients with Diabetic Foot Ulcer: Adopted IWGDF Guidance
Introduction: Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is common in diabetic patients, and about half of the patients with diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) have concomitant peripheral arterial disease (PAD). The purpose of this study was to select an appropriate and comprehensive clinical guide in the management of DFU. The part of the practical guide that pertains to this is based on three systematic revie...
متن کاملSurgical infrainguinal revascularization for peripheral arterial disease: factors affecting patency rate
Background: Peripheral arterial disease is a source of morbidity and mortality. Surgical vascular reconstruction is a treatment option but probability of failure and complications are important concerns. In this study, we evaluated outcome of surgical infrainguinal reconstruction and factors affecting graft patency for a period of one year. Methods: In this cohort study, 85 consecutive patie...
متن کاملPrevalence of Peripheral Neuropathy in Diabetic Patients
Abstract Objective: Diabetic peripheral neuropathy is the main risk factor of diabetic foot ulcer and its early diagnosis is important to prevent limb amputation. We assessed the prevalence of peripheral neuropathy in diabetic patients.

متن کاملبررسی تأثیر Vacuum-Compression Therapy (VCT) بر جریان خون اندام دیابتی
Background: Chronic diabetes is substantially associated with circulatory disorders in lower limbs. Vacuum-Compression Therapy (VCT) has been commonly used in treatment of peripheral circulatory disorders. VCT is based on intermittent alteration of Positive- Negative pressure phases. The purpose of this study was to determine effects of VCT on diabetic subjects' peripheral blood flow.Methods: I...
متن کاملAssociation of diabetic peripheral arterial disease and objectively-measured physical activity: NHANES 2003-2004
BACKGROUND Although much is known about the management of peripheral arterial disease among adults in the general population, the management of this disease among those with diabetes, and the effects of diabetic-induced peripheral arterial disease on objectively-measured physical activity, is unclear. Here, we examined the association between accelerometer-assessed physical activity and periphe...
