Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the activity of patients with diabetic foot ulcerations and their adherence to their pressure off-loading device. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: We enrolled 20 subjects treated for neuropathic diabetic foot wounds corresponding to University of Texas grade 1 stage A. All were off-loaded using a removable cast walker (RCW). We recorded the total activity (measured in activity steps per day) taken on a waist-worn computerized accelerometer. We subsequently correlated this to activity recorded on an RCW-mounted accelerometer, which was not readily accessible to the patient. RESULTS: There were a mean 1219.1 +/- 821.2 activity units (steps) taken per patient per day. Patients logged significantly more daily activity units with the protective RCW off than with it on (873.7 +/- 828.0 vs. 345.3 +/- 219.1, P = 0.01). This amounts to only 28% of total daily activity recorded while patients were wearing their RCW. Although a total of 30% of the patients in the study recorded more daily activity units while wearing the device, this subset most adherent to their off-loading regimen still only wore the device for a total of 60% of their total daily activity. CONCLUSIONS: Subjects with diabetic foot ulcerations appear to wear their off-loading devices for only a minority of steps taken each day. This may partially explain the poor results reported from many trials of agents designed to help speed the healing of these wounds. Control of this important aspect of care with less easily removable devices may increase the prevalence of healing.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
