Abstract: It has been documented that almost 85% of lower-limb amputations are preceded by a diabetic foot ulcer and that up to 80% of major lower-limb amputations are preventable. This article discusses the efforts by CorHealth, together with a provincial advisory committee of vascular and wound care experts, primary and community care providers, and patient and family advisers, chaired by Dr. Ahmed Kayssi towards the development of a multi-year Ontario lower-limb preservation strategy.
