pharmacists to get involved in diabetic foot screening
April 2000
There's a new opportunity for pharmacists to get involved in diabetic foot screening...by using a simple tool to test for sensation in the feet.
These sensory screenings are easy to do.
A nylon filament is pressed lightly against the foot to determine whether patients have lost sensation in their feet. These patients have a higher risk of developing foot ulcers which can lead to amputations.
