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 uses two special cameras to look at blood flow and heat patterns in your feet. The goal is to better predict who might be at risk for developing a diabetic foot ulcer, so steps can be taken to prevent it.
This study tests a special camera system that takes pictures of your foot ulcer during your regular clinic visits. The goal is to see if it can help track healing and catch problems earlier, without extra trips to the clinic.
This study tests whether shining a special infrared light on diabetic foot ulcers can help them heal faster. It may be an option if you have a diabetic foot ulcer that hasn't healed in 30 days.
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.
