Description
Divya Nair Narayanan and Samsiah Awang published a study protocol in two thousand twenty-five on measuring foot self-care in Malaysians with diabetes. Foot ulcers cost patients money and quality of life, and painless damaged feet mean problems get missed. Clinics lack a standard local tool to score how well patients care for their feet.
The protocol runs in two phases. First, the team drafts questions from the literature, checks them with experts, translates them, and pre-tests them with patients and clinic staff. Second, a pilot and a larger field test across urban and rural clinics will validate the tool. Scoring bands and their meanings will be set. The aim is a simple instrument for daily use.
