2. neuropathy: sensory, motor, and autonomic
3. sepsis: tissue containing glucose saturated support bacterial growth.

* history of intermittent claudication
* pulsation was not palpable
* sepsis (bacteria / fungi)

6. There are several grades of diabetic ulcers?

Grade diabetic ulcers are:
1). Grade 0: no injuries
2). Grade I: hany a feel to the skin surface
3). Grade II: damage to the skin to reach the muscle and bone
4). Grade III: occurs abscess
5). Grade IV: gangrene in the foot, distal
6). Grade V: gangrene pad the entire foot and lower distal tungkak.

chemotherapy. Giving mengompreskan ulcer wound with a solution
chloride solution or a mild antiseptic. For example rivanol and potassium solution
permanganate 1: 500 mg and the closure of the ulcer with sterile gauze.
Orthopedic appliances which mechanically that could flatten the body pressure
of leg injuries. Am-amputated may be required for cases of DM

15. What kind of clinical picture in the case of d iabetik feet?

Diabetic gangrene gangrene due mikroangiopatik also called hot because although necrosis, akral area was red and feel warm by inflammation, and usually palpable in the distal arterial pulsation. Usually there are diabetic ulcer pa da soles of the feet.

Makroangiopati process causes blockage of blood vessels, whereas in acute pulmonary embolism will provide clinical symptoms 5 P, y aitu:
a. Pain (pain).
b. Paleness (pallor).
c. Paresthesia (parestesia and tingling).
d. Pulselessness (missing pulse).
e. Paralysis (paralysis).

If there is chronic obstruction, will arise from the pattern of clinical features according to Fontaine, that is 4:

1. Stage I: asymptomatic or atypical symptoms (tingling or geringgingan).
2. Stage II; happens intermittent claudication.
3. Stage III; resulting pain at rest.
4. Stage IV; form of manifestation of tissue damage because anoksia (ulcers).

16. What are the classification of diabetic foot?

Classification:

According to the severity of the lesions, diabetic foot disorders ene m divided into degrees according to Wagner, that is;

Diabetic Foot Classification System, Wagner.
Degree of lesion
0 skin is intact, there is foot deformity due to neuropathy
A superficial ulcers
2 Ulcers deeper
3 ulcers in along with the possibility of cellulitis and abscesses or osteomyelitis
Fourth finger gangrene
5 foot gangrene

Classification of diabetic foot lesions can also be based on the extent of its wounds and ischemic regions is modified by Brodsky of classification of diabetic foot according to Wagner.

Diabetic Foot Classification System, modifications Brodsky.
The depth of the wound Definition
0 Feet-risk, without ulceration
A superficial ulceration, without infection
2 Ulceration of the till of the tendon
Three broad ulceration / abscess

17. Type Size injuries seen from ischaemia regions, among others:

A Without ischemia
B ischaemia without gangrene
C Partial gangrene
D Complete foot gangrenen

18. What rules of prevention can be done?

Prevention of diabetic foot rule, namely:

1. Each of infection, although small is an important problem that demands full attention.
2. Ka ki should be cleaned thoroughly and dried with a dry towel every time the shower.

If there are bones in the feet protruding or any deformity, usually can not be simply overcome by the use of artificial footwear generally require the cutting action of bone protruding (exostectomy) or correcting the deformity.
b) Level I.
Requiring debridement of necrotic tissue or infectious tissue, local wound care and expense reductions.

c) Level II.
Require debridement, appropriate antibiotics with culture results, the local treatment of wounds and expense reduction technique that is more meaningful.

d) Level III.
Debridement requires a network that has become gangrenous, amputation in part, a more stringent immobilization and parenteral antibiotics according to culture.

e) Level IV.
At this stage usually requires action amputation amputation of part or all of the foot.
