Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Patients diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Hospitalized patients with one or more clinically diagnosed diabetic foot ulcers Age more than or equal to 30 years Ulcers that can be graded using the Wagner classification system Patients who give informed consent to participate in the study Willingness to undergo clinical microbiological Retinal Renal and neurovascular assessment

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Patients with non-diabetic foot ulcers example venous pressure or arterial ulcers unrelated to diabetes Patients with malignant ulcers or ulcers secondary to autoimmune or vasculitic diseases Individuals with severe comorbid conditions such as advanced malignancy end-stage renal disease on dialysis or terminal illness that could confound outcomes Pregnant or lactating women Patients who have received antibiotic treatment within the past 7 days before wound culture collection Patients with incomplete clinical data or who are unable/unwilling to comply with study protocols Patient with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
This study is expected to demonstrate a strong correlation between Wagner grades and clinical microbiological neurovascular and metabolic findings in diabetic foot ulcers Higher grades are anticipated to be associated with severe neuropathy poor vascular status and complex often resistant infections Incorporating nephropathy retinopathy and glycemic control enhances prognostic accuracy The findings aim to validate the Wagner system as a predictive tool for DFU severity support early identification of high risk patients and guide targeted treatment to reduce complications and hospital staysTimepoint: 18 months

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
