We examined 180 patients with purulent-necrotic complications of diabetic foot syndrome, in whom the proposed diagnostic algorithm was used. Magnetic resonance imaging of the feet, ultrasound Doppler with duplex angioscanning, magnetic resonance and computed angiography of the lower extremities, as well as assessment of transcutaneous oxygen tension were performed. Surgical treatment tactics depended on the form of the diabetic foot syndrome, as well as the severity of the disease. As a local treatment, physical methods were used to accelerate the course of the wound process. The proposed diagnostic algorithm for the diagnosis and selection of surgical treatment for various forms of diabetic foot syndrome has made it possible to reduce the number of “high” amputations and maintain a supporting limb. Purpose of the study is to improve treatment outcomes for purulent-necrotic complications of diabetic foot syndrome by developing and applying a diagnostic algorithm and differentiated treatment tactics. The main group consisted of 180 patients with purulent-necrotic complications of diabetic foot syndrome, in whom the developed diagnostic algorithm and differentiated tactics of surgical treatment were used, as well as physical methods of influencing the wound process (ultrasonic cavitation and local ozonation) were used as local treatment. The control group included 40 patients with purulent-necrotic complications of diabetic foot syndrome, whose treatment involved the use of drugs that improve the rheological properties of blood and tissue microcirculation (rheopolyglucin, trental, actovegin) according to conventional schemes. Local treatment included sanitation and treatment of wound and ulcerative surfaces with antiseptic solutions and ointments, depending on the phase of the wound process. Data analysis in this group was carried out based on a retrospective study of case histories and an assessment of long-term results of treatment by follow-up examinations and telephone interviews. Control group included 25 (63%) men and 15 (37%) women; the average age was 67.3±10.3 years. The developed unified approaches in diagnosing and treating patients with purulent-necrotic complications of diabetic foot syndrome, who, in complex treatment, underwent staged necrectomy with simultaneous ultrasonic cavitation of purulent wounds and their ozonization, can reliably reduce the number of ulcer recurrences from 28% to 2.7%, high amputations by 34%, and the number of re-amputations ― 10 times. The use of minimally invasive surgical technologies for the rehabilitation of deep purulent foci of the foot, in comparison with the classical principles of treatment of purulent wounds, makes it possible to achieve a complete cleansing of wounds, preparation for plastic surgery, and an increase in the number of functional supportable lower limbs by 42.7%. According to the data obtained, it is optimal to perform sanitizing operations after revascularization of at least one artery no earlier than 3–4 days, which makes it possible to increase their efficiency and reduce the number of repeated surgical interventions. The approach to managing patients with diabetic foot syndrome at all stages of treatment and rehabilitation should be interdisciplinary and include the following specialists: endocrinologist, orthopedist, surgeon, psychologist, trained nursing staff.

Background: Purulent lesions of the feet in diabetes mellitus bring excruciating suffering to the patient, reduce the quality of life and often lead to limb amputation and possible death. The disappointing results of the treatment of purulent complications of diabetes encourage the search for both new approaches to treatment and methods for assessing the reparative potential of wound defects. Aim: This study aimed to improve the treatment of purulent-necrotic complications of the diabetic foot by studying the morphological assessment of healing processes when using promising treatment methods such as then programmed debridement. Methods: Over the past 10 years, the results of treatment of 106 patients with purulent-necrotic complications of diabetic foot syndrome (DFS) without critical ischemia have been analyzed. The patients were randomized into two groups. In the experimental group (n = 55), after surgical treatment, the wound was sutured tightly, and in the postoperative period, programmed debridement was carried out using the original AMP-01 device. In the control group of patients (n = 51), the purulent wound was not sutured after the operation, and local treatment was carried out with solutions of iodophors, ointments based on polyethylene glycol. To assess the dynamics of reparative processes in purulent wounds, a cytological method was used, which makes it possible to quickly and reliably assess the stage of the wound process and the effectiveness of the treatment. The simplicity and availability of the method allows it to be recommended to all practicing specialists. Results and Discussion: In the experimental group, by day 9 after surgery, the number of degenerative forms of neutrophils in cytological smears was 2.9 times lower than in the control group - 12.3 ± 0.3% versus 36.4 ± 0.4% (p 0.001) - and the RDI indicator in experimental group was 3.4 times higher compared with the control group - 2.6 ± 0.1 and 0.9 ± 0.1, respectively (p 0.001). This indicated more active phagocytosis, more rapid cleansing of the purulent cavity. An earlier appearance of cells of young connective tissue was observed in the experimental group. The number of fibroblasts by day 9 after surgery was 4.6 times higher (6.4 ± 0.4%) than in the control group - 1.4 ± 0.1% (p 0.001), which confirmed the presence of active regenerative processes in the wound. Conclusions: The use of programmable sanitation technologies in treating purulent complications of a diabetic foot leads to a more significant reduction in the duration of the inflammation phase and acceleration of reparative processes

Diabetes mellitus is currently characterised by a high progressive prevalence of patients. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical, functional, and morphological parameters of purulonecrotic foci healing in diabetic foot syndrome (DFS) using programmable sanitation technologies. The patients were randomised into two groups. In the comparison group (n=51), patients received conventional local treatment after surgery. In the main group (n=55), after surgical treatment, the wound was sutured, and in the postsurgical period, programmable sanitation was conducted using the AMP-01 device. The cytological smears of the main group identified a higher rate of cellular reactions in the wound. There was a 1.3-fold reduction in the duration of hospitalisation, the number of purulent complications was significantly less (p=0.014). It was possible to preserve the supporting function of the foot in patients of the main group in a larger percentage of cases (p=0.023). There was a statistically significant increase in the frequency of high amputations in the comparison group (p=0.026). As a result, the effectiveness of the use of programmable sanitation technologies for purulent lesions of the diabetic foot has been proven.

Aim. Improvement of complex treatment results in patients with diabetic foot syndrome by introducing methods of gravitational surgery and α-lipoic acid. Methods. The results of treatment were analyzed for 558 patients with diabetic foot syndrome treated in Scientific Centre of Surgery named after M.A. Topchubashov (Baku, Azerbaijan) from 1988 to 2015. The age varied from 28 to 83 years. The patients included 416 men and 142 women. The control group included 90 patients who at the perioperative period underwent basic therapy including antibiotics, anticoagulants, antiaggregants, dextrans, angioprotectors, spasmolytics, corticosteroids, narcotic and non-narcotic analgesics. The study group included 468 patients, along with traditional therapy receiving efferent methods (plasmapheresis, ultraviolet blood irradiation, ozone therapy) and α-lipoic acid. 282 patients of the study group received outpatient treatment and 186 - complex inpatient surgical treatment. A comparative evaluation of the results was performed separately in three groups: angiopathy, neuropathy, angioneuropathy. The results were evaluated by clinical and instrumental examinations before and after treatment (6, 12, 60 months and more). Results. In the study group a satisfactory result of treatment was registered in 85.5% of patients, in the control group - in 62.2%, unsatisfactory in 14.5 and 37.8% of patients, respectively (p=0.046). Conclusion. The use of efferent methods and α-lipoic acid provided prompt elimination of numerous pathogenetic disorders observed in diabetes mellitus, decrease of amputation frequency and improvement of complex surgical treatment results in patients with diabetic foot syndrome.

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is the most common and socially significant endocrine disease that leads to early disability and is the most common cause of mortality in patients after cancer and cardiovascular pathology. The cost of managing patients with diabetes can reach 30% of the country's health budget, 90% of which is spent on the treatment of its complications. Diabetic foot syndrome (DFS) is developed in 20-80% of patients and is one of the most dangerous late complications. In clinical practice, various approaches to its treatment are used, but the number of high amputation and mortality rate in this group of patients remains significant. The aim of the study was to improve the results of treatment of patients with diabetic foot syndrome (DFS) by including the bubbling treatment method in the program of therapeutic measures. Forty-eight patients with neuropathic and neuroischemic forms of DFS were treated. The control group consisted of 23 patients receiving conventional treatment, the main group included 26 patients, who were applied bubbling treatment option locally. The analysis of groups of patients showed no significant differences by gender, age, stages of diabetic foot syndrome, depth of necrotic defect, complications and concomitant diseases. The use of the bubbling treatment method in the complex treatment of patients with DFS allowed more effectively arresting symptoms of local (edema, hyperemia, wound exudate, necrolysis) and general inflammation, anemia and intoxication syndromes, contributed to the activation of regeneration processes in soft tissues, which, combined with complex FDS treatment, together, reduced the number of amputations by 18.7%.
