Study Summary

This is a pilot study to explore the effects of long-course versus short course antibiotics on wound healing in surgically managed diabetic foot infections. Hypothesis: Diabetic Foot Infections (DFIs) are best managed with an early aggressive surgical approach and short term antibiotic use. Post-operative prolonged antibiotic use increases costs and resource utilization without improving outcomes.

Primary Outcome

Wound healing at 3 months (75% epithelialization) from the time of the final definitive operation.

Interventions

  • PROCEDURE Surgical incision and drainage of diabetic foot infection
  • DRUG Short course antibiotics
  • DRUG Long course antibiotics
