Ultrasound-Assisted Wound (UAW) Debridement in the Treatment of Diabetic Foot Ulcer: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis @JosLuisLzaroMa1 #Diabeticfoot @alpslimb 

More and more data to support improvement in wound optimization with ultrasound assisted wound debridement from our long-time friends from the Complutense in Madrid. A systematic review and meta-analysis were carried out to investigate the effect of ultrasound-assisted wound (UAW) debridement in patients with diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs). All selected studies were evaluated using the... Continue Reading →

An in vivo model for overloading-induced soft tissue injury #ActAgainstAmputation #DiabeticFoot #Theragnostics #Diagnostics @ALPSlimb @Staffsbiomech

Strong work from our Staffordshire colleagues Chatzistergos and Chockalingam who continue to help push the envelope in helping us collectively measure what we manage. An in vivo model for overloading-induced soft tissue injury This proof of concept study demonstrates that repetitive loading to the pain threshold can safely recreate overloading induced soft tissue damage and...
