Prevention of foot ulcers in patients with diabetes and end stage renal disease.

This quasi-experimental pilot study used a convenience sample of 23 adult men and women with either Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes who received hemodialysis three times a week. The experimental group received a four-part intervention that included individual and group foot care education, foot assessment, and special shoes. Pre- and posttesting of foot care knowledge was done using the Siriraj questionnaire.
