Background : Skin problems caused by neuropathy and antipathy are common manifestations of diabetes.
The most serious about such problem is the diabetic foot, which may lead to eventual ulceration and amputation, and will decrease a patient’s quality of life dramatically. Objectives : The aim of this study is to assess the level of foot self-care and foot conditions in diabetic patients, and to demonstrate the role of self-care education in diabetic foot care. Patients and Methods : A total of 80 diabetic patients were included in the study, all of whom had referred to " Yazd Diabetic Research Center." The levels of their foot self-care were recorded in pre-test questionnaires, and then all of the patients were visited and educated by a Dermatologist for their foot self-care on a monthly basis, after which their post-test results were recorded through a second administration of the same questionnaire.
Eventually, data from the pre and post-test questionnaires were analyzed to identify the possible effects of education. Results : A total of 80 diabetic patients (34 males, 46 females) with a mean average age of 53.53 ± 10.19 and mean average duration of diabetes 12.42 ± 6.73 years were assessed.
A significant increase in foot self-care through education was observed (baseline 27.06 ± 8.77, vs.
post education 43.12 ± 8.77 ; P = 0.0001).
After education, foot and nail lesions improved completely in 84% and 62.8%.
Moreover, 77.8% of patients had suitable shoes and 79.6% had suitable socks. Conclusions : Our findings showed that foot self-care education could improve knowledge and performance of patients about various foot problems, and was significantly important in preventing ulcers.
