Introduction: Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease of the endocrine system that has numerous complications such as diabetic foot ulcers. Amputation is the last frontier for the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers but they can be prevented through proper self-foot-care behavior. The aim of this study was to explain the support factors of self foot care for diabetes mellitus patients.Methods: The methods used were self-foot-care identification in the literature, with the relevant literature identification based on the topics and titles obtained from Scopus, ScienceDirect and ProQuest. This was as well as analysis of the results from examining the various behaviors that support self-foot-care behavior in the literature. The references included was the research conducted from 2013 - 2019 as follows: 2 descriptive correlation studies, 3 descriptive studies, 2 prospective studies, 1 prospective cohort study, 1 pre-experimental study, 3 quasi-experimental studies, 1 case study and 3 cross-sectional studies.Results: All of the journals included discussed foot care behavior. Education programs regarding foot care are a major factor that supports foot care behavior.Conclusion: All of the journals that were obtained stated that there was a positive influence on the diabetic foot condition where routine foot care behavior was implemented. Self-foot-care behavior also requires other supporting factors to obtain the maximum results.

Background: Diabetes associated neuropathy and vasculopathy leads to development of diabetic foot ulcers (DFU). They are responsible for considerable morbidity and a significant cost of health‐care worldwide. The magnitude of the problem becomes worse in regions where foot care is inadequate like in our country. The aim of the study to determine the microbiological profile and antimicrobial susceptibility pattern of organisms isolated from patients with diabetic foot ulcers.  Methods: The study was a cross sectional study done at King George’s Medical College, Lucknow from 2012-2014 in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh. Based on the inclusion criteria sample were collected from 112 patients. The standard protocol for the identification of microorganisms was followed.  A descriptive analysis of the data was done.Results: Out of the 112 ulcers total 180 isolates were found. Of the 112 cases, 78 were monomicrobial, 32 were polymicrobial, and 2 cases were sterile on culture. The most common bacteria found was Staphylococcus aureus. Most of the staphylococcus isolated were sensitive to vancomycin, teicoplanin, cephalosporins, linezolid levofloxacin and pipercillin-tazobactum. Nearly 65% of S. aureus were methicillin‐resistant S. aureus.Conclusions: This study compiled clinical and microbiological profile of diabetic foot ulcers along with their antibiotic susceptibility patterns. Our study illuminates light on a high figure of neglected and poorly treated NHUs which could have been managed well and early treatment will prevent devastating consequences such as sepsis and amputation.

Diabetic foot ulcersare long-term complications of diabetes mellitus that may increase morbidity and mortality, also reduce the quality of life of the patients. One of the causes of diabetic foot ulcers is peripheral arterial disease due to dyslipidemia. This study was conducted to determine the relationships of lipid profile with diabetic foot ulcers in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Analytical observational study with cross-sectional design was conducted in 69 diabetic patients. Data was retrieved secondarily by observing the medical records. Total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL, HDL, and consumption of lipid-lowering drugs of the patients were all recorded. Documented variables were analyzed using Fisher Exact test if Chi-square test criterias were not fulfilled. There was a significant association between diabetic foot ulcers with total cholesterol (p=0,001) and HDL (p=0,015), while triglycerides (p=0,393) and LDL (p=0,176) did not have a significant association with diabetic foot ulcers.Multivariable logistic regression identified HDL (B=2,221, S.E.=1,131, Wald=3,855, p=0,050, exp(B)=9,220 IK95% 1,004–84,691)as the most influential lipid profile fraction to the incident diabetic foot ulcers. Total cholesterol and HDL had a significant association with diabetic foot ulcers. The most influential lipid profile fraction to the incident diabetic foot ulcers is HDL.

Diabetes self-care memiliki efek langsung pada kontrol glikemik dalam terjadinya ulkus kaki diabetic. Skor PEDIS merupakan form pemeriksaan yang digunakan perawat dalam menilai keparahan ulkus kaki. Keterbatasan intervensi ulkus kaki yang diberikan oleh perawat saat ini disebabkan oleh terbatasnya data tentang self-care pada pasien diabetes. Tujuan penelitian mengetahui self-care pasien diabetes dengan komplikasi ulkus kaki menggunakan metode pengukuran skor PEDIS yang teridiri dari pemeriksaan perfusi, luas luka, kedalaman luka, keberadaan infeksi dan sensasi kaki.Metode: Penelitian ini termasuk penelitian kuantitatif, dimana penentuan responden menggunakan teknik Convenience sampling dengan jumlah sampel adalah 125, analisa data yang digunakan dengan metode  deskriptif.Hasil: Pada penelitian ini 53,8 % reponden memiliki diabetes self-care yang adekuat dan rata- rata responden memiliki Skor PEDIS 2,08.Kesimpulan: dalam penelitian ini sebagian besar responden memiliki diabetes self-care yang tidak adekuat.  Nilai Diabetes self-care dapat digunakan oleh perawat untuk mengetahui tingkat kualitas perawatan diri pasien selama ini sehingga memudahkan dalam menentukan intervensi yang tepat untuk mencegah terajadinya perburukan ulkus kaki. Kata kunci: diabetes mellitus tipe 2, diabetes self-care, dan ulkus kaki diabetik. ABSTRACTBackground: Diabetes self-care is a diabetes patient self-care behavior that includes diet management, insulin use, exercise and foot care. Diabetes self-care has a direct effect on glycemic control in the occurrence of diabetic foot ulcers. The PEDIS score is an examination form that nurses use in assessing the severity of foot ulcers. The limitations of the foot ulcer intervention given by nurses at this time are due to limited data on self-care in diabetic patients. The aim of this study was to determine the self-care of diabetic patients with complications of foot ulcers using the PEDIS score measurement method which consists of examination of perfusion, wound area, wound depth, presence of infection and foot sensation.Methods: This research is a quantitative study, where the determination of the respondents using the convenience sampling technique with a sample size of 125, the data analysis used is the descriptive method.Results: In this study 53.8% of respondents had adequate diabetes self-care and the mean of respondents had a PEDIS score of 2.08. Conclusion: in this study most of the respondents had inadequate self-care diabetes. The value of diabetes self-care can be used by nurses to determine the level of quality of patient self-care so far, making it easier to determine the right intervention to prevent worsening of foot ulcers. Keywords: type 2 diabetes mellitus, diabetes self-care, and diabetic foot ulcers.

Abstract Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disease characterized by an increase in blood sugar levels due to damage to insulin secretion. Neuropathy is a common complication of diabetes mellitus. One way to prevent neuropathy or other complications is to do regular foot care. The role of caregiver in diabetic foot care is important to improve the quality of life of patients living with diabetes mellitus. They need to be provided with the latest knowledge and support regarding diabetic foot care. Purpose: Study was to determine the relationship between care giver knowledge about diabetic foot care and foot ulcers at risk of developing ulceration in DM. Methods: This study was an analytical study with a cross sectional study design. The research sample was 40 respondents who met the criteria. The data were collected using a knowledge questionnaire with 20 questions and a risk observation sheet for diabetic foot. Results: This study showed that most of the respondents had less knowledge about diabetic foot care, namely 26 (65%). The study also showed a relationship between the lack of knowledge about foot care and the risk of foot injury for people with diabetes, a = 0.05 (95% CI). Conclusion: This study has proven that a care giver must be equipped with diabetic foot care competency, and  DM patinets can avoid complications of diabetic foot ulcers. Nurse should provide education to the community regularly, especially on the novelty of the knowledge that has been gained either from research or from the experience gained in the clinic or nursing home.   Abstrak Latar Belakang: Diabetes melitus (DM) merupakan suatu penyakit metabolik yang di tandai dengan adanya peningkatan kadar gula darah akibat kerusakan pada sekresi insulin. Neuropati merupakan salah satu komplikasi diabetes melitus yang sering terjadi. Salah satu cara mencegahan neuropati atau komplikasi lainnya yaitu dengan melakukan perawatan kaki yang rutin. Peran care giver dalam perawtan kaki diabetik sangat diperlukan untuk peningkatan kualitas hidup pasien dengan diabetes mellitus. Mereka perlu diberikan pembekalan serta dukungan ilmu yang terbaru mengenai perawtan kaki diabetik. Tujuan: Adapun tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui hubungan antara pengetahuan care giver tentang perawatan kaki diabetik dengan kejadian kaki beresiko terjadinya ulkus pada penderita DM. Metode: Penelitian ini adalah penelitian analitik dengan  rancangan penelitian cross sectional. Sampel penelitian sebanyak 40 responden yang memenuhi kriteria.  Pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan menggunakan kuesioner pengetahuan dengan 20 pertanyaan dan lembar observasi resiko kaki diabetik. Hasil: Hasil Penelitian menunjukkan sebagian besar responden memiliki pengetahuan yang kurang tentang perawatan kaki diabetik yaitu sebesar 26 (65%). Penelitian juga menunjukkan adanya hubungan antara kurangnya tingkat pengetahuan tentang perawatan kaki dengan resiko terjadinya luka pada kaki penderita DM, a=0.05 (CI 95%). Kesimpulan: Penelitian ini telah membuktikan bahwa pendamping anggota keluarga yang sakit harus dibekali kompetensi perawatan kaki diabetik, dengan harapan penderita DM dapat terhindar dari komplikasi ulkus kaki diabetikum.

Abstract Background and aims: Infected foot ulcer is one of the most feared complications of diabetes mellitus. Staphylococcus aureus is the most frequently isolated pathogen in diabetic foot infections. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of S. aureus strains involved in producing foot infections in diabetic patients and the antibiotic resistance pattern of these strains. Material and methods: The study included 33 S. aureus strains isolated from 55 diabetic foot ulcers. The subjects were selected from the 2465 patients with diabetes mellitus hospitalized in the Timişoara Diabetes Clinic, between 2011 and 2013. Germs’ identification relied on cultural and biochemical characteristics. Final identification and antimicrobial testing were performed using the Vitek 2 (Bio Merieux France) automatic analyzer. Results: All the 55 samples collected from diabetic foot ulcers were positive. We isolated 64 bacterial strains (some samples were positive for 2 microorganisms). The most frequently isolated germ was S. aureus, in 33 samples (51.56%). All these S. aureus strains showed resistance to benzylpenicillin, while only 33.33% were methicillin-resistant (MRSA). Conclusions: The most frequently isolated germ in the wound secretions from diabetic foot ulcers was S. aureus. The highest percentage of antimicrobial resistance was recorded to benzylpenicillin and erythromycin.
