foot ulcers and non-healing diabetic wounds India is home to the second highest
number of people
living with diabetes in the world, after China. Today there
are over 45 million people grappling
with the disease, and the numbers show no
signs of reducing.
Amongst
other health hazards, diabetes often leads to peripheral vascular disease,
involving both the macro and
micro circulation. Statistics reveal that 15% of
all those living with the disease will develop foot problems
related to
diabetes, and may suffer from various deformities of the toes and feet,
commonly called
'diabetic foot conditions'. These can develop from a
combination of causes including
neuropathy (nerve damage) and/or poor blood
supply to the foot, which creates
areas of raised pressures in the soles of the
feet, where ulcers develop.
These ulcers act as portals for the entry for
bacteria leading
to serious infections, which in the already immune
compromised
patients can result in
amputations or even death.
Diabetic Neuropathy can cause
insensitivity or a loss of ability to feel pain, heat, and cold. This makes
matters
worse for those suffering from neuropathy as they can develop minor
cuts, scrapes, blisters, or pressure
sores that they may not even be aware of.
If left untreated, these minor injuries can lead to
serious limb and life
threatening infections. Extensive epidemiological surveys
have indicated that
between 40% and 70% of all lower extremity
amputations are related to diabetes.
This means that every
30 seconds a lower limb is lost to diabetes.
In India, an
estimated 50,000 amputations occur per year due to diabetes related foot
problems.
A vast majority (85%) of these diabetes-related amputations are
preceded by foot ulcers.
Healing wounds
Under Pressure
Oxygen
used under pressure or Hyperbaric Oxygen (HBO2) can assist
wound healing.
HBO2 is
considered to be used successfully in hypoxic or ischaemic wounds
such as diabetic wounds, venous stasis ulcers, failing grafts and flaps,
necrotising soft tissue infections and refractory osteomyelitis.
In wound healing, hypoxia is an
insufficient supply of oxygen which prevents
normal healing processes. HBO2 provides
the oxygen needed
to stimulate and support wound
healing.
HBO2 is able to combat clinical infection such as
gas gangrene by acting directly
on anaerobic bacteria, enhancing
leukocyte and macrophage activity and
potentiating the effects of
antibiotics.
