Safety and Efficacy of Low Intensity Shockwave Therapy in Treating Diabetic Foot Ulcers
Low intensity shockwaves for treating diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) have been in evaluation for the past 5 years. Many researchers showed the effectiveness of Low intensity shockwaves of in accelerating the healing rate of non-ischemic chronic DFUs. Wang et al. showed, the use of Low intensity shockwaves on DFUs, significantly improved topical blood flow perfusion rate, increased cell proliferation and cell activity and decreased cell apoptosis.
The present study deals with the effect of low intensity shockwaves on DFUs. Shockwave treatment will be done together with the standard conventional treatment for DFUs, compared to a control group who will receive the same conventional standard of care.

Intervensjon / Behandling |
|---|---|

Eksperimentell: Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy and debridement
The treatment will be performed as an outpatient care procedure with no anesthesia.
Patients will undergo wound debridement and cleansing before each treatment.
The transducer device will be positioned against the lesion area and shockwaves will be delivered at a gradually increasing energy, with a maximum energy level of 0.09mJ/mm2

Aktiv komparator: debridement and cleansing.
The standard treatment to the control group and the treatment group will be performed as an outpatient care procedure with no anesthesia.
Patients will undergo wound debridement and cleansing.
The physician will treat the patient in regard to his medical state: antibiotic medication if needed, dressing and off loading with Orthotic devices
