Item Prediction of stump healing in lower limb amputation: A narrative review(Mark Allen Group, 2019-12-11) Ashraff, Suhel; Siddiqui, Muhammad A.; Santos, Derek; Carline, TomBoth types of diabetes, as well as different forms of acquired diabetes, are associated with diabetic peripheral neuropathy. Diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) is the condition most commonly related to somatic peripheral neuropathy, often leading to gangrene and limb amputation. Independent from large-vessel disease, sensory loss may result in DFU development and even amputation. The crucial part of any lower limb amputation is the stump healing process, which represents the central goal of postoperative management. Despite the importance attributed to this process, a standard set of guidelines regarding efficient healing methods is yet to be formulated. Health professionals are faced with the challenge of assessing the different risk factors and deciding which has a greater influence on the stump healing rate. There is currently an insufficient number of studies regarding factors effecting lower limb amputation. The main purpose of this review is to discuss the markers that can be helpful in the prediction of stump healing in patients who have undergone lower limb amputation.Item A survey of babywalkers in GP's, health visitors and orthopaedic surgeons(The Society of Chiropodists and Podiatrists, 1999) Cashley, D.; Carline, TomItem Accidental intra-arterial injection -a cause of lower limb ischaemia in intravenous drug users(The Society of Chiropodists and Podiatrists, 1998) Weir, Evelyn C.; Carline, TomItem Gli effetti dalla droga sugli arti inferiori(1998) Weir, Evelyn C.; Carline, TomItem A Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection of the nail: a case report(1997) Santos, Derek; Carline, Tom; Weir, Evelyn C.Item The management of a pathological fracture of the third metatarsal(1997) Carline, TomItem The provision of foot care for diabetic inmates in Scottish prisons(1997-05) Weir, Evelyn C.; Carline, TomItem Obesity: A study to ascertain the relationship to musculoskeletal disorders of the lower limb(The Society of Chiropodists and Podiatrists, 1996) Carline, TomItem A comparative investigation of the bacterial population of hot air hand dryers and paper towels(1994) Carline, TomOur Research Report for 2000-2002 reflects an outstanding level of achievement throughout the institution and demonstrates once again our high level of commitment to strategic and applied research particularly in areas that enhance the quality of life.
