Potent Antimicrobial properties of a Biodegradable Medical Device in the treatment of Diabetic Foot

There is an urgent need for effective antimicrobial agents to treat infected diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs), which are associated with debilitating symptoms, high rates of amputation, long-term disability, elevated mortality, and significant healthcare costs. This need is even more critical in the era of increasing antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Recent IWGDF/IDSA international guidelines recommend "avoiding antibiotics unless there is confirmed bacterial infection and demonstrated susceptibility to the prescribed agents."
