Giriş: Ayak ülseri, diyabetin istenmeyen bir sonucudur. Azalan ağrı hissiyle birlikte nörolojik imbalans sonucu gelişen kas gücü değişiklikleri ile ayağın normal basma mekanizması bozulmakta, plantar yüzde anormal basınç artışı ve ülserler meydana gelmektedir. Uzun süreli ve geçmeyen ülserler, infeksiyon ve ampütasyona gidişi arttırmaktadır. Yapılan birçok çalışmada yara bölgesindeki basınç ve yükü azaltan yöntemlerin faydalı olduğu görülmüştür. Çalışmalarda altın standart uygulamanın total temas alçılama olduğu gösterilse de sirküler kapalı alçılama uygulaması infekte ve akıntılı olgularda yara yeri takibi yapılamayacağından önerilmemektedir. Alçıda yara yerinde pencere açılarak yaranın takibi mümkün olabilir. Bu çalışmada, infekte diyabetik ayak yarası olan olgularda, lezyon yerinde pencere açılarak yapılan alçılamanın etkinliğini değerlendirmeyi planladık.

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic and complex disease that affects various parts of the body. It can lead to multiple systemic complications and also cutaneous manifestation. Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is one of the most devastating complications of DM in dermatology. The main etiology is an increase in plasma glucose, risk factors, or comorbidities due to DM itself. Neglected DFU can lead to further complications, including high amputation and mortality rates; thus, the healing of ulcers is the main objective of the treatment. Management is divided into the standard of care and adjuvant therapies. This study aims to optimize DFU management, so it can provide proper treatment and prevent complications.
