    Nyckelord :amputation; complications; diabetes mellitus; diabetic foot ulcers; documentation; education; healing; home care; neuropathy; nursing; nursing process; peripheral vascular disease; pressure ulcer; prevention; RCT;

    Sammanfattning : Amputation in patients with diabetes mellitus preceded by a foot ulcer is a serious complication. Patients with the highest risk of developing a foot ulcer are often found in home nursing settings. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Hallux valgus surgery : epidemiological aspects and clinical outcome

    Författare :Carlos Saro; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Hallux valgus; Osteotomy; Plantar pressure; Prevalence; Quality of life; Randomized controlled trial; Surgery;

    Sammanfattning : Hallux valgus is a common condition that accounts for a significant number of visits to foot and ankle specialists. Surgery is the standard treatment but there is insufficient evidence from randomized trials to determine which method of treatment is the most appropriate. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Response of human skeletal muscle to chronic and acute exercise and ischemia : muscle dimensions, tissue water and blood flow as measured by magnetic resonance imaging and comparative methods

    Författare :Anders T Nygren; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Bloodflow; cross-sectional area; exercise; fiber area; Gd-DTPA; glycogen; human; hypotrophy; intermittent claudication; ischemia; magnetic resonance imaging; metabolism; perfusion; reflex sympathetic activity skeletal muscle; training; transverse relaxation; ultrasonography.;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this study was to investigate the response of human skeletal muscle to exercise, training and ischemi and to evaluate if magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) could be used to measure regional muscle cross-sectional area, muscle perfusion and detect muscle ischemia in patients with intermittent claudication. For this purpose studies were performed on 29 healthy young volunteers and 7 patients with intermittent claudication. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Skin circulation measured by fluorescein flowmetry

    Författare :Eduardo Patricio Proaño Romero; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Skin circulation;

    Sammanfattning : Fluorescein flowmetry (FF) is an indicator dilution technique using sodium fluorescein as an indicator. If the tissue is illuminated with U-V light or blue light, after a bolus injection of the dye, fluorescence is seen in the tissue, and can be measured either photographically or by the video technique.

  7. 5. Wireless Wearable Measurement System Based on Pedobarography for Monitoring of Health

    Författare :Per Anders Rickard Hellström; Mia Folke; Martin Ekström; Ning Xiong; Amy Loutfi; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; elektronik; Electronics;

    Sammanfattning : Health care costs have increased over the last decades due to an ageing population. Therefore, research in personal health monitoring (PHM) has increased in response to this. LÄS MER
