Amit Jain’s classification for diabetic foot complications: The universal classification supreme
Journal Title: International Journal of Surgery Science - Year 2018, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
Diabetic foot can be considered as an enigma in view of its complexity. Various attempts have been made over decades to give a best classification for diabetic foot. The popular classifications for diabetic foot are Wagner’s classification and its derivative, the University of Texas classification. Many researchers and consensus have often recommended them without realizing that these classifications aimed for ulcers. Amit Jain’s classification for diabetic foot complication is the new simple, easy and supreme classification that has for the first time included all the lesions in diabetic foot thereby rendering it a complete and a universal classification for diabetic foot.
