Carbapenem-resistant bacteria are a major cause of diabetic foot (DF) infection. They are resistant to almost all available antimicrobial agents and lead to increased hospital costs. The clinical and microbiological characteristics of DF infection due to these microorganisms and the association of DF with outcomes such as mortality and amputation are not yet well established. This was a retrospective cohort study involving 60 vascular surgery patients who were admitted to Nossa Senhora da Conceição Hospital due to DF infection caused by carbapenem-resistant bacteria and who underwent debridement or amputation, and a control group with 60 randomly selected patients. The analyzed parameters were mortality and amputation rates and patients’ epidemiological and microbiological profiles. A significant association was observed between bacterial resistance and previous amputation, previous hospitalizations, and DF ulcer classification into ischemic and neuroischemic; however, there were no differences in mortality and amputation rates between the groups, even after using the Charlson comorbidity index. Although DF infections by carbapenem-resistant bacteria were not statistically associated with worse outcomes, their study is important given that there are few therapeutic options for treating these specific infections.

RESUMO: O portador de Diabetes Mellitus necessita de cuidados preventivos em função das complicações dessa patologia. Esse trabalho tem como objetivo descrever a atuação da Fisioterapia na prevenção de úlceras de pacientes com pé diabético. Foi resultado de uma revisão de literatura, realizado por meio de pesquisa na base de dados Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde utilizando os descritores "Fisioterapia; úlcera, pé diabético". O diabetes pode levar a complicações severas como o risco de desenvolver úlceras do pé diabético, culminando em possível amputação. A fisioterapia atua com ações preventivas na rotina do diabético exigindo conhecimento e preparo adequado desse profissional.Descritores (DeCS) 6 : Fisioterapia. Pé diabético. Úlcera.

Diabetes mellitus is one of the most critical health conditions around the world, not only in terms of the number of affected people, disability, and premature mortality, but also in regards to the health care costs involved in controlling and treating its complications. Among the most constant ailments the diabetic patient suffers is the diabetic foot, defined as any infection, ulceration, and/or necrosis of deep tissues associated with neurological abnormalities and various degrees of peripheral vascular disease of the lower limbs. Diabetic foot ulcerations have become a major and increasing public health concern and its associated morbidities, impairment of the patients’ quality of life, and the implied costs for management have attracted the attention of numerous health care providers. In this case report, the authors review a unique presentation of a polymicrobial infection of a multi-drug resistant character species formed by oxacillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, Acinetobacter baumannii and Acinetobacter lwoffii.
