Summary

thirty-four patients with charcot foot ulcer will be included, their ages will be ranged from 50 to 70 years old and randomly distributed into two equal groups : study group includes 17 patients who will recieve pulsed electromagnetic field and electrical stimulation three days per week for three months .

control group includes 17 patients who will recieve electrical stimulation , standard wound care and medical treatment

Conditions

  • Charcot Foot Ulcer

Interventions

DEVICE

pulsed electromagnetic field therapy

PEMF is regarded as an efficient physical therapy method that has been utilized clinically to treat a variety of orthopedic conditions, including delayed union and nonunion of fractures. According to studies, PEMF has been authorized for its biological effects, which include the mineralization of bone matrix, osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells, and osteoblast proliferation

DEVICE

Transcutanous electrical nerve stimulation

Electrical stimulation consider a safe and cost-effective method for pain management. It has no side effects and few contraindication in addition to no drug interaction . According to studies ,electrical stimulation decreases pain through reducing central transmission of pain signals because of nociceptive inhibition at the presynaptic level in the dorsal horn.

DRUG

Vancomycin

medical antibiotics
