Study Summary

This study will evaluate a comprehensive tailored behavioral intervention aimed to improve foot self-care and self-monitoring (combined with dermal thermometry) to prevent recurrent ulcers in Veterans at highest risk of amputation. This intervention may be a novel strategy for improving self-care and early detection of foot abnormalities in this at-risk population using psychological theories to target multiple health behaviors simultaneously. This could be an efficient and cost-effective approach to improve diabetes-related foot health behavior, and other risk factors in patients who are vulnerable to devastating consequences related to amputation.

Primary Outcome

High-resolution standard view digital photographs of the feet and footwear will be obtained and reviewed by the investigators blinded to group assignment, and a suspected ulcer or nonulcerative plantar lesion below the malleoli will be referred to a panel of three blinded (as to group assignment) adjudicators, all clinical experts. Lesions will be judged as absent/nonulcerative lesion/ulcer; involving/not involving the plantar surface (defined as involving the weight-bearing surface of the foot)
