“…Taylor and coworkers 22 reported on the management and outcomes of 917 neuropathic ulcers in 706 patients over 5 years. The population was divided into three groups: neuropathic, ischemic with revascularization, and ischemic without revascularization.…”

Abbreviations: (CI) confidence interval, (DFU) diabetic foot ulcer, (LEA) lower-extremity amputation, (PAD) peripheral arterial disease AbstractDiabetic foot complications are increasing in prevalence worldwide. Care and attention to these complications have improved greatly. Many advanced therapies are now being investigated or taken through final stages of clinical studies worldwide. However, the data upon which assumptions regarding morbidity, healing, and mortality have been based are grossly outdated. The purpose of this brief article is to report on current data regarding neuropathic and neuroischemic wounds and to propose that the latter category of advanced-stage diabetic foot wound may now be emerging as the most commonly encountered lesion in the developed world. Unfortunately, it is still systematically excluded from most clinical study criteria. Additionally, just as in the care of cancer, we call for therapy of these advanced-stage diabetic foot ulcers to be managed in similarly interdisciplinary centers where patients may have access to potentially beneficial clinical trials.

“…10 Many studies have evaluated the localization of foot lesions and the outcome of forefoot, midfoot, or heel wounds 30,25,28 ; however, few studies have compared the outcome of diabetic ulcers localized to different areas of the foot. 13,22,27 To our knowledge, no studies have evaluated the localization of osteomyelitis in different areas of the foot; in 2009-2010, only 2 studies mentioned the site of osteomyelitis. 9,17 However, both of these studies focused on 1 site rather than evaluating different areas of the foot.…”

“…Scores for two key process indicators , off‐loading of plantar mid‐foot ulcers and revascularization of ischaemic limbs, did not significantly increase in the same period. This observation highlights that outcomes and processes of care are not necessarily associated . Indeed, while we have not described all the recorded processes in this article, it might well be the case that it does not matter so much whether a certain care process was provided, rather than how it was provided (i.e.…”

A unique, nationwide quality improvement initiative was established among diabetic foot clinics, covering ulcer healing, lower limb amputation and many other aspects of diabetic foot care. Data completeness increased, thanks in part to questionnaire revision. Benchmarking remains challenging, given the many possible indicators and limited sample size. The optimized questionnaire allows future quality of care monitoring in diabetic foot clinics.
