| Abstract | Diabetes mellitus is a global pandemic, especially in Southeast Asia. Diabetic foot infection (DFI) is a common complication of this condition and causes significant morbidity and mortality in those affected. There is a lack of locally published data on the types of microorganisms and empirical antibiotics being prescribed. This paper highlights the importance of local microorganism culture and antibiotic prescription trends among diabetic foot patients in a tertiary care hospital in central Malaysia. This is a retrospective, cross-sectional study of data taken from January 2010 to December 2019 among 434 patients admitted with diabetic foot infections (DFIs) using the Wagner classification. Patients between the ages of 58 and 68 years old had the highest rate of infection. |
