Objective:To analyze thesurgical, emotional and comprehensive care factors after diabetic foot surgery. Material and Method:Bibliographical review with study characteristics of a quantitative, descriptive, cross-sectional approach.A series of journals with articles whose variables were located in patients diagnosed with diabetesmellitus were reviewed. Results:Women 55 and men 45 years, mean age was 54 years. However, theassociation of age with compliance with self-care behaviors in the sample of amputated patients withtype 2 DM was not statistically significant. Likewise, these factors influence adherence to diabetes self-care, specifically with practices related to foot care, related to greater difficulty in understanding theindications.
