The third edition of Clinical Care of the Diabetic Foot has been
fully revised and updated, and continues to be the essential
handbook on foot care and the treatment of the diabetic foot. The
diabetic foot is typically the victim of nerve damage, micro- and
macrovascular disease, and faulty healing, mechanisms that without
proper care can lead to amputation. More than 80,000
diabetes-related amputations are performed in the United States
each year, but non-specialist primary care providers, as well as
residents, nurses, and diabetes educators, can help prevent this
devastating, life-altering, and expensive complication. Healthcare
professionals and medical students alike will find that this
concise, well-indexed, and updated guide offers practical advice on
detecting and managing diabetes-related foot complications.
