The Role of Telemedical Monitoring in Diabetic Foot Ulcer Care (A15-06)

June 27, 2016 updated by: CHU de Reims
The role of telemedical monitoring in diabetic foot care is still uncertain. The aim is to compare telemedical + standard and standard alone outpatient monitoring in the care of patients with diabetic foot ulcers in a randomized controlled trial. The primary outcome of the overall study is the time of ulcer healing. The number of amputation, hospital admissions and surgical procedure will be also reported. Investigators hope to include 150 patients in this study.
