NCT ID NCT07338773
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 10, 2026 · Updated 5 times
Summary
This study tests whether giving the antibiotic vancomycin directly into the bone (intraosseous) during diabetic foot amputation works better than the standard IV method to prevent surgical site infections. It includes 40 adults with diabetes who need a below-knee amputation. Researchers will measure antibiotic levels at the wound and track infections, kidney function, and need for repeat surgeries over 90 days.
