“…Proper foot care is an essential component in both the prevention and management of diabetic foot disease. The importance of self-care behaviors and practices being at the core of diabetic foot management was reinforced in a consensus statement issued by a multi-disciplinary panel and published in 2011 (14). To increase the extent of proper foot care in the diabetic, barriers to proper diabetic foot care should decrease and the enablers increase-the first step is to identify these factors.…”

Sin embargo, son diversas las investigaciones que determinan que mediante la intervención educativa se previene la aparición de úlcera por la reducción del impacto de los factores de riesgo desencadenantes expuestos con anterioridad, como son la neuropatía, la isquemia y la infección.…”

“…Sin embargo, los pacientes cuyo perfil se califica de bajo riesgo, pueden desarrollar complicaciones con relativa rapidez en ausencia de un buen control glucémico y prácticas de autocuidado, que puedan facilitar la rápida identificación de cambios en la sensibilidad 9 . De este modo, los últimos estudios han hallado que los pacientes con neuropatía no mostraron mayor presencia de deformidades que los que no eran diabéticos neuropáticos.…”
