Description
Summary:Diabetic foot (DF) is one of the most common complications of diabetes and is associated with high morbidity, disability, lethality and low cure-rate. The clinical diagnosis and treatment of DF need to be standardized. The Chinese Diabetic Foot Cell and Interventional Therapy Technology Alliance has released six editions of guidelines and standards for clinical diagnosis and interventional treatment of DF, which filled the gap in the domestic DF treatment standard and played an important role in improving the level of diagnosis and treatment in China. In line with the latest developments in diagnosis and treatment, the Alliance, along with other 89 institutions, developed and issued the new edition based on the sixth edition to help standardize the clinical diagnosis and treatment of DF in China.
