  • Background: Callus formation in the diabetic foot increases the risk of ulcer onset. It is standard procedure to remove these dead tissue layers to reduce rising pressures. In a surgical procedure known as scalpel debridement, or chiropody the callus tissue is removed up to the epidermal layer. Factors may influence the outcome of this surgical process such as clinician inexperience. In an effort to standardize the debridement process, tissue oxygenation (TO) measurements are obtained before and after to study the effect of debridement on callus tissue. Methods: Fifteen debridement cases were analyzed using near infrared (NIR) imaging to study changes in TO. The NIR-based device used in this study estimates effective changes in TO in terms of oxy-, deoxy-, total hemoglobin, and oxygen saturation. Weber contrasts between callus tissue and the surrounding normal tissue were compared following debridement for all TO parameters. In a secondary analysis, callus tissue was segmented into quadrants and a percent of significance (in terms of total TO change) was calculated using a t-test. Results: Results show majority of cases displayed greater than 80% as the significant change in TO following debridement, except in cases with the presence of blood clot (a common precursor for ulceration). In cases where incomplete debridement was suspected, a significant change in TO was still observed. Conclusions: With extensive systematic studies in the future, NIR imaging technique to measure changes in TO may be implemented as a low-cost hand-held imaging device useful for objectively assessing the effectiveness of the scalpel debridement process.
