Produktbeschreibung

According to studies conducted by the World Health Organisation, foot problems in people with diabetes are the most frequent cause of hospital admission and absorb approximately 40% of available health care resources. It has been suggested by many authors that the diabetic foot is a major cause of morbidity and constitutes a chronic complication of diabetes mellitus that has an impact on the quality of life of these patients. Diabetic patient education is recognised as an essential component of diabetic patient care. Among the most effective measures to properly manage people with diabetes and prevent diabetic foot disease is personal, individual and group education. This book offers the necessary changes to acquire a healthy culture and a better lifestyle, to acquire the information required to get started and to be able to successfully navigate the long journey of dealing intelligently with and preventing future complications.
