White paper on the diabetic foot

The diabetic foot is one of the most dreaded complications of diabetes: silent in its early stages, it can develop into serious ulcers, prolonged hospitalisation and even amputation. Yet in the majority of cases, these outcomes are avoidable.

This white paper, published by Solsius, provides a structured summary of essential knowledge about the diabetic foot, for patients and healthcare professionals alike.

In 9 chapters, it covers: the pathophysiology of diabetes and its effects on the feet, the warning signs to look out for, good daily hygiene practices, the role of footwear, medical monitoring protocols, what to do in the event of injury, therapeutic patient education, reinforced prevention strategies for high-risk patients, and the benefits of connected plantar thermomonitoring.

It is a practical reference document to help you better understand, prevent and manage diabetic foot complications using today's tools.
