Review decision:
An update of this guideline is underway to coincide with publication of the four diabetes guidelines currently being updated.
Diabetic footcare (update of CG10 and CG119)
Next review date: TBC
This short clinical guideline offers evidence-based advice on the inpatient care of people with diabetic foot problems from hospital admission onwards. It is the full guideline and contains all the recommendations, details of how they were developed, and reviews of the evidence they were based on.
The care pathway in the full guideline was amended (January 2012) to reflect recommendation 1.2.9 more clearly. We have also amended this in the NICE pathway as well as the quick reference guide.
