Characterization of Local and Systemic Bone Markers in Diabetes Patients With Charcot Osteoarthropathy

March 28, 2020 updated by: Rasmus Bo Jansen, Bispebjerg Hospital

The study is designed to investigate biomarkers related to bone turnover in diabetics with charcot foot. This is done by measuring local blood samples in the feet, and systemically in a vene and an artery. Measurements are done before and after cooling the feet in icewater to lower the bloodflow.

Patients will be compared with healthy diabetic controls.
