Abstract
Objective
The purpose of this study was to analyze the risk factors for the incidence of diabetic foot infection (DFI) in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) type II.
MethodThis was a cross-sectional approach with a total sample of 53 DM type II patients with DFU that being obtained through accidental sampling technique. Data were analyzed in univariate, bivariate, and multivariate.
ResultsNeuropathy was found as a risk factor for infection (p=0.032, OR=10.58), as well as bacterial count (p=0.043). Those risk factors were directly proportional to the incidence of infection.
ConclusionNeuropathy and bacterial counts on the surface of the wound can be used as indicator of DFI.
