Researchers want to understand what determines whether a diabetic foot ulcer will heal or continue to worsen. By collecting blood, wound fluid, and other samples from people with active foot ulcers, this study will look for biological markers—measurable signs in your body—that can help doctors predict healing outcomes and personalize treatment plans for each patient.
Diabetic foot ulcers are a serious complication that affects many people with diabetes, and they don't all heal at the same rate. Currently, doctors have limited tools to predict which wounds will heal well and which ones won't. This study aims to discover biological clues that could help doctors identify high-risk wounds early and adjust treatment accordingly.

You will visit diabetic foot and wound care clinics for routine check-ups as part of your normal care. During these visits, the research team will collect samples including blood, fluid from your wound, and possibly urine. If your doctor performs wound cleaning during your care, they may collect a small tissue sample. You'll also answer questions about your health, medications, and life circumstances. This is an observational study—you won't receive any experimental drugs or treatments, only standard wound care.
