Infrared camera study for diabetic foot in Guadeloupe
Part of Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism, Infections, Skin clinical trials.
This study uses a special infrared camera to measure heat patterns in the feet of people with diabetes in Guadeloupe. The goal is to see if this painless method can help detect or monitor foot problems, which may prevent ulcers.

This study checks if a special sugar-drink test can find type 2 diabetes in people whose fasting blood sugar is normal but whose HbA1c is slightly high. It is for adults 18–64 of African or Indian descent with certain risk factors.
This study collects thermal (heat) images of the feet of people with diabetes who have had a healed foot ulcer. The goal is to see if these images can help prevent future foot problems.
This study checks whether special imaging of your feet—using light/temperature pictures—can help sort your risk for developing a diabetic foot ulcer. It may help identify people who need closer prevention or foot care.
This study uses noninvasive (no major procedures) tests to better understand how diabetic foot ulcers or infections are healing. It may help doctors choose better ways to support wound healing in people with diabetes.
This study tests whether a special type of infrared light (called MIRE) can help heal diabetic foot ulcers that have not healed in 30 days or more. If you have a diabetic foot ulcer with good blood flow and no bone infection, this treatment may help speed up healing.
This trial is testing a new way to take a small sample of infected bone from the foot of people with diabetes. It aims to see if a bedside biopsy is safe and accurate for diagnosing bone infection, so you may avoid more invasive procedures.
