Diabetic Foot This year’s event will illustrate the latest developments in diabetic foot care as well as offering interactive, practical advice and CPD-based learning opportunities. Essential clinical information at the conference will be followed by post-event easy-to-use online modules.
A mix of practical demonstrations (filmed live on stage and shown on the big screen), and step-by-step, educational videos will form the basis of a case study-based day focusing on (anonymous) audience responses to keypad questions designed to clarify and reinforce vital learning points around practical skills such as assessment, screening, offloading and ulcer classification as a basis for treatment choice.
