The Evidence and Use of Amniotic Allografts in Treating DFUs

There are many modalities used to manage Diabetic Foot Ulcerations (DFU’s). Many clinicians are unaware of the differences in data surrounding these modalities, especially the Amniotic Allografts. This educational program will address Amniotic tissue use in clinical care.

 

The data surrounding Amniotic Allografts will be discussed, as well as the impact of DFUs in this patient population in regards to morbidity and mortality. The concept of Dynamic Reciprocity will be outlined as it relates to the chronic wound and healing process.

 

The Meta-Analysis will be explained with the indicators towards healing, so clinicians can identify patients at risk for amputation early in the treatment process. Wound bed preparation and the D.I.M.E algorithm will also be outlined.
