Article Synopsis
  • - The study investigates wound complications following transtibial amputation in patients with diabetic foot (DMF) infections, finding a 43.1% complication rate within a sample of 72 patients over an average follow-up of 36.2 months.
  • - Notably, patients with complications had a higher average hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) level of 9.32 compared to 7.54 in those without complications, indicating a link between poor blood sugar control and wound issues.
  • - Additionally, a significant correlation was found between a history of kidney transplantation and the occurrence of wound complications, suggesting it as a potential risk factor in this patient group.

We also analyzed the patient factors that could affect patient satisfaction.
