Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Patients with diabetes should be thoroughly examined before they are provided with insoles and shoes. The purpose of the foot examination is to determine whether the patient is at risk of developing diabetic foot ulcers (DFU). Risk factors are: neuropathy, peripheral angiopathy, foot deformities, skin pathologies, earlier history of DFU/amputation. With effective control and examination of the feet, foot complications, such as DFU, can be prevented. In the study the feet are examined with the help of a new software, the D-Foot. D-Foot includes questions and surveys.

The aim of the of the study is evaluate how the patients experience the visit at the department of Prosthetics \& Orthotics based on the digital foot check.
