Can a new lab test predict which antibiotics will work on diabetic foot sores?

NCT ID NCT02378493

Summary

This study aimed to see if a special laboratory test, called an antibiofilmogramme, could help predict whether a specific antibiotic would successfully treat a diabetic foot infection. Researchers observed 33 patients with infected foot wounds to see if the test results matched how well the wound healed. The study did not change the patients' standard medical care; it only collected information to improve future treatment decisions.
