The Neuro-Ischaemic Charcot Foot: Prevalence, Characteristics and Severity of Peripheral Arterial Disease in Acute Charcot Neuro-Arthropathy

Abstract: The study aimed to evaluate the prevalence, characteristics and outcomes of patients affected by Charcot neuro-arthropathy (CN) and peripheral arterial disease (PAD) compared to CN without PAD. Consecutive patients presenting with an acute CN were included. The sample size was calculated by the power analysis by adopting the two-tailed tests of the null hypothesis with alfa = 0.05 and a value of beta = 0.10 as the second type error and, therefore, a test power equal to 90%. Seventy-six patients were identified… Show more

“…However, it is important to point out that these guidelines were developed for CNO and intact skin. It is not uncommon that patients with active CNO and diabetes also present with an active infected DFU or other absolute/relative contraindications to the use of a TCC/non-removable knee high device, such as osteomyelitis or peripheral artery disease (PAD) [ 9 ]. Moreover, the application and monitoring of a TCC needs a certain level of expertise, not available everywhere, and the TCC can itself cause blistering or new lesions, in addition to worsening the risk of falls [ 10 , 11 , 12 ].…”
