Zusammenfassung

Das klinische Bild und die Pathogenese des diabetischen Fußsyndroms (DFS) sind außerordentlich vielfältig. Grundlage der meisten Veränderungen sind die periphere diabetische Polyneuropathie und die daraus folgende Fehlbelastung der verschiedenen Strukturen des Fußes, Durchblutungsstörungen durch eine periphere arterielle Verschlusskrankheit sowie Infektionen. Die unterschiedliche Ausprägung dieser Hauptursachen führt zu der vielfältigen Klinik, die eine Zusammenarbeit verschiedener Berufsgruppen erforderlich macht, ohne die eine umfassende Behandlung der Vielfältigkeit des DFS nicht möglich ist. In dieser Übersicht soll insbesondere der Anteil der unterschiedlichen Berufsgruppen an der Prävention, Diagnostik und Behandlung des DFS herausgestellt werden. Nur durch die Koordinierung eines interdisziplinären Diabetes-Fuß-Teams ist eine adäquate Therapie des DFS erfolgreich.

Abstract

The clinical picture and pathogenesis of the diabetic foot syndrome are extraordinarily varied. The causes of the majority of lesions are peripheral diabetic polyneuropathy and the resulting incorrect distribution of pressure on structures of the foot, impairment of circulation due to peripheral arterial disease, as well as infections. The different aspects of these main causes result in a multifaceted clinical picture. Therefore, it is essential that different professional groups cooperate with one another; without this, comprehensive treatment of the many aspects of the diabetic foot syndrome is not possible. In particular, the present article attempts to highlight the part played by the different professional groups in the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of the diabetic foot syndrome. Only if an interdisciplinary diabetic foot team is coordinated and works together smoothly can successful therapy of the diabetic foot syndrome be achieved.
