Amit Jain’s Offloading System for Diabetic Foot Wounds: A Better and Superior Alternative to Felted Foam
Journal Title: International Journal Of Medical Science And Clinical Invention - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Offloading is an essential treatment modality that is key in preventing and healing of ulcers in the foot of diabetes patients. Various different offloading modalities exist with each having their own advantage and disadvantage. What is essential in clinical practice is which one is the best that can be applied with ease and which can facilitate in ulcer healing. Felted foam is one of the common offloading modality used in the west by the clinical practitioner. It is however not available in many Asian and African countries. The author proposes a new offloading technique that can be considered an alternative to felted foam with superior characteristics which works on concept of deflective offloading and can be easily made and used all over the world.
