Diabetes remains the leading cause of chronic wounds and non-traumatic lower-extremity amputations worldwide. The diabetic foot represents a complex interplay of neuropathy, vascular disease, biomechanical stress, infection, and metabolic dysfunction. Without early recognition and intervention, minor tissue injuries can rapidly progress to limb-threatening complications.
We sponsored a live webinar hosted by In-House CME that explored the underlying pathophysiology of diabetic foot ulcers and Charcot neuroarthropathy, emphasizing how early diagnostic recognition and coordinated multidisciplinary care can prevent catastrophic outcomes.
Participants learned how to recognize early warning signs of diabetic foot pathology, implement effective offloading strategies, and determine when surgical stabilization or advanced therapies are necessary to preserve limb function and patient mobility.
