Abstract: Limb preservation can involve both established and emerging strategies to identify, prevent and surgically manage foot infections in patients living with peripheral arterial disease (PAD), chronic limb-threatening ischemia, and diabetes. If a person with diabetes needs treatment, a multidisciplinary approach is recommended that combines antiplatelet agents, a statin, glucose management, exercise therapy, hypertension management and hyperlipidemia management.
