Lockdown delays in diabetic foot care may have increased amputation risk
NCT ID NCT04891276
Summary
This study looked at how COVID-19 lockdowns and hospital fears affected the care of diabetic foot ulcers. Researchers analyzed hospital records from 2017 to 2020 to see if fewer people went to the hospital for foot wounds during lockdowns. They wanted to find out if these delays in care led to more serious complications, including a higher risk of leg or foot amputation.
