The International Working Group on the Diabetic Foot (IWDGF) has produced in 2011 a guideline on the diagnosis and treatment of peripheral arterial disease in patients with diabetes and a foot ulcer. This document, together with a systematic review that provided the background information on management, was produced by a multidisciplinary working group of experts in the field and was endorsed by the IWDGF. This progress report is based on these two documents and earlier consensus texts of the IWDGF on the diagnosis and management of diabetic foot ulcers. Its aim is to give the clinician clear guidance on when and how to diagnose peripheral arterial disease in patients with diabetes and a foot ulcer and when and which treatment modalities should be considered, taking both risks and benefits into account.
国际糖尿病足工作组（IWDGF）于 2011 年制定了一项关于糖尿病合并足部溃疡患者外周动脉疾病诊断和治疗的指南。这份文件是由多学科专家工作组根据系统综述编写的，为管理提供了背景信息，并得到了 IWDGF 的认可。这份进展报告基于这两份文件以及 IWDGF 之前关于糖尿病足溃疡诊断和管理的共识文本。其目的是为临床医生提供明确的指导，说明何时以及如何诊断糖尿病合并足部溃疡患者的外周动脉疾病，以及何时应考虑何种治疗方式，同时考虑风险和收益。
