Episode Details

This episode traces how battlefield triage shaped modern emergency medicine and applies those principles to diabetic foot care in the ER. Dr. G explains time-sensitive threats — sepsis, necrotizing infection, acute limb ischemia, compartment syndrome, and Charcot neuropathy — and walks through focused exams, vital labs, essential imaging, dressing choices, and when to escalate to vascular, podiatry, or surgery.

Learn practical triage questions, documentation tips, and high-yield pitfalls to avoid so urgent diabetic foot problems are recognized early and treated appropriately.
