Smart boots fight amputation risk with Real-Time alerts

NCT ID NCT04460573

Summary

This study is testing whether smart boots with real-time feedback can help people with diabetic foot ulcers wear their protective footwear more consistently. Researchers are comparing three approaches: strict wear instructions, standard care instructions, and smart boots that track wear time and provide feedback through a smartphone. The goal is to see if better adherence to wearing the boots leads to faster healing of foot sores and reduces amputation risk.
