Overview
The incidence of diabetic foot ulcer is approximately 1500 per 100,000 diabetic individuals world wide. Among the US veterans the incidence of active diabetic foot ulcers is approximately 500 per 100,000 individuals. On the other hand the incidence of active diabetic foot ulcers in United Kingdom has been estimated 220 per 100,000 individuals. Furthermore it's prevalence has been reported 170 per 100,000 individuals among the United Kingdom population. The 5 year risk of mortality in diabetic patients with a foot ulcer is 2.5 times higher than diabetic individuals without a foot ulcer. Based on 2 studies with different follow up duration, mortality rate of diabetic foot has been estimated as 10% and 24% in 16 months and 5 years follow up, respectively. Based on a systematic review and metanalysis done on diabetes patients, diabetic foot was more common among older patients. White people develop diabetic peripheral neuropathy (which is a serious risk factor for diabetic foot) more frequently. In 1987, Borch-Johnsen et al. described a male preponderance for the development of severe microvascular complications and diabetic foot disease is not an exception to this rule. Highest prevelance of diabetic foot has been reported in North America. In contrast, Oceania has the lowest reported prevelance of diabetic foot.
Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence
- The incidence of diabetic foot ulcer is approximately 630 per 100,000 diabetic individuals world wide.[1][2][3][4]
- According to an other estimate the incidence of diabetic foot ulcer is approximately 1500 per 100,000 individuals worldwide.[5]
- The incidence of active diabetic foot ulcers in the US veterans is approximately 500 per 100,000 individuals.[1][2][3][4]
- The incidence of active diabetic foot ulcers in United Kingdom is approximately 220 per 100,000 individuals.[1][2]
- Based on another study, up to 25% of diabetic patients develop diabetic foot within their disease period.[6]
- It is estimated that 2% to 3% of diabetic patients experience diabetic foot every year.[7][8]
- Between 15 to 20 percent of diabetic patients in the United States will be hospitalized due to diabetic foot and it's complications at one point in their life.[9]
Prevalence
- The prevalence of active diabetic foot ulcers in United Kingdom is approximately 170 per 100,000 individuals.[1][2]
- Based on a cohort study which studied 310 patients with type 2 diabetes, diabetic foot prevelance was found to be 18.1%.[10]
- In a study done on a diabetic population in Ethiopia, prevalence of diabetic foot ulcer has been estimated 13.6% with a 95% confidence interval (9.3-17.2) among 279 diabetic patients who attend a diabetic clinic.[11]
- Prevalence of diabetic foot have been reported 51.8% based on a community based cross-sectional study which evaluated 620 diabetic patients in rural areas of India.[12]
- The following table is a summary of prevalence of diabetic foot globally and in different regions:[3]
| Region | Prevalence of diabetic foot | 95% Confidence interval |
|---|---|---|
| Global | 6.3% | 5.4–7.3% |
| North America | 13.0% | 10.0–15.9% |
| Asia | 5.5% | 4.6–6.4% |
| Europe | 5.1% | 4.1–6.0% |
| Africa | 7.2% | 5.1–9.3% |
| Oceania | 3.0% | 0.9–5.0% |
Mortality Rate
- The 5 year risk of mortality in diabetic patients with a foot ulcer is 2.5 times higher than diabetic individuals without a foot ulcer.[1]
- Based on 2 studies with different follow up duration, mortality rate of diabetic foot has been estimated as 10% and 24% in 16 months and 5 years follow up, respectively.[13][14]
- Another study done in Liverpool foot clinic reported 44% five year mortality in diabetic patients with a new foot ulcer.[15]
- Based on a study done in Spain mortality has been reported 28 among 1000 patients per year and the main cause (31.2%) was cardiovascular disease.[16] Another study done in England demonstrated the cardiovascular diseases as the main cause of death in diabetic foot patients as well.[14]
Age
Based on a systematic review and metanalysis done on diabetes patients, diabetic foot was more common among older patients.[3][17]
Race
White people develop diabetic peripheral neuropathy (which is a serious risk factor for diabetic foot) more frequently.[18]
Gender
- In 1987, Borch-Johnsen et al. described a male preponderance for the development of severe microvascular complications and diabetic foot disease is not an exception to this rule.[19] [20]
- For unknown reasons, men have a higher risk of diabetic foot disease compared to women.[17][21]
- Few possible explanations could be the higher bioavailability of nitric oxide (NO), higher responsiveness to NO and the protective role of estrogen in women. [22]. However the beneficial effect of these factors could be reversed by diabetes itself and irrespective of the menopausal status of female patients.
Region
- Highest prevelance of diabetic foot has been reported in North America.[3]
- Lowest prevalence of diabetic foot has been reported in Oceania.
- Africa has higher prevalence of diabetic foot, compared to Asia and Europe.
