Abstract
Diabetes is a long life disease in which the sugar level is increased in blood. Diabetes contains the one of the most complication disease that is Diabetic foot ulcer. Diabetes foot ulcer is one of the major medical, social and economic complications of Diabetes mellitus and this infection has polymicrobial nature. Diabetes foot ulcer infections have the optimal treatment in which the type of foot ulcer infection is recognized and pathogen-appropriate antibiotic therapy is suggested. In case of non-recognizable and uncontrolled of foot ulcer diabetes, it can be leads to many devastating consequences like limb amputation, sepsis, and even mortality and hospitalized. In this review paper, we studied about the bacteriological profile of Diabetes Foot Ulcers. Keywords: Diabetes Mellitus, Foot Ulcer Diabetes, Polymicobial, Pathogen
Introduction
Diabetic foot is among the most critical conditions of diabetes that leads to cause hospitalization among diabetic patients (Shanmugam, Jeya and Linda, 2013). According to World Health Organization (WHO), this disease widespread with an increasing incidence and peoples are afflicted approximately 150,000,000 across the world. Diabetic Foot is referred to as infection and ulcers that is accompanied by neuropathy and arteriovnous abnormalities in the foot of patients with diabetes (Sheikh et al., 2014). Approximately 57 million Indian peoples will affected by Diabetes in the year of 2025. Individuals contain diabetes involve soft tissue and bone infection of foot other than without diabetes (Shanmugam, Jeya and Linda, 2013).
Diabetic foot decreases the action of Phagocytic cells thereby weaken the immunity. In lower extremities, the blood supply is compromised by local injuries and improper foot wear but foot infection with diabetes are initially treated empirical in patients, a therapy which is directed at the known causative organism may improve the outcome (Sheikh et al., 2014).
Many studies have been reported before 25 years ago on bacteriology of Diabetic Foot Infections (DFIs) but its result have been diverse and contradictory. The differences in the positive organism causes discrepancies, which had happen overall period of time, variation in a geographical region on the infection type or severity as were stated in various studies.
