Check inside shoes for foreign objects, torn lining, and proper cushioning. Improper or poorly fitting shoes are major contributors to diabetes foot ulcerations. Counsel patients about appropriate footwear. All patients with diabetes need to pay special attention to the fit and style of their shoes and should avoid pointed-toe and open-toe shoes, high heels, thongs and sandals. Assess the material and construction of footwear. Unbreathable and inelastic materials such as plastic should be avoided. Recommend use of materials such as canvas, leather, suede, and other materials that are breathable and/or elastic. Footwear should be adjustable with laces, Velcro, or buckles. Record the results of your footwear. | Post-discharge nutritional support in malnourished ill elderly patients Effectiveness and cost-effectiveness Floor Neelemaat Post-discharge nutritional support in malnourished ill elderly patients - effectiveness and cost-effectiveness Thesis VU University Medical Center Amsterdam The Netherlands With summary in English and Dutch The studies presented in this thesis were conducted within the departments of Nutrition and Dietetics Internal Medicine of the VU University Medical Center and the EMGO Institute for Health and Care Research EMGO Amsterdam The Netherlands.
