METHOD FOR PREDICTION OF DIABETIC FOOT DEVELOPMENT Russian patent published in 2019 - IPC A61B5/265 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to medicine, namely to surgery. Microcirculatory bed is analyzed by laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF). LDF values are measured at the foot of the foot, calculating the prognostic DS coefficient by formula: DS=1.2-0.38×M+0.02×Kv-0.125, where M is an index of microcirculation, which characterizes erythrocyte flow per unit time through a unit of tissue volume (pf units), Kv is coefficient of variation reflecting relation between tissue perfusion and value of its variability (%). If DS is more than 1.0, development of diabetic foot is predicted.

EFFECT: method provides more accurate prediction of developing diabetic foot as a result of examination of microcirculatory bed by LDF method and selection criteria of probability of developing diabetic foot syndrome in diabetic patients on the basis of significance of signs in the onset of this pathological state based on data of constructing a mathematical model based on regression analysis methods.
