Latar Belakang: Telah dilakukan penelitian dengan tujuan mengetahui gambaran klinis dan mikrobiologis penderita infeksi kaki diabetik derajat 3 dan 4 sesuai klasifikasi PEDIS. Penelitian prospektif terakhir pada ulkus/gangren kaki diabetik di RSCM dilakukan tahun 1984. Bahan dan Metode: Penelitian dilakukan prospektif potong-lintang di RSCM pada bulan Maret-Desember 2004 dan didapatkan 52 penderita infeksi kaki diabetik yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi. Gambaran klinis penderita meliputi luka (Iokal) maupun sistemik sesuai klasifikasi PEDIS (Perfusion, Extent, DeptMissue lose, Infection, Sensation), ditambah modifikasinya (bau luka dan krepitasilgas). Pemeriksaan mikrobiologis infeksi kaki diabetik dilakukan biakan kuman aeroblanaerob dan tes kepekaan antibiotik.

Background. This study aimed to recognize clinical pictures and microbiological pattern in 3rd and 4th degrees of the PEDIS classification of diabetic foot infection (OFI). The last prospective study on diabetic ulcer/gangrene in RSCM was conducted in 1984. Materials and Methods. The design was a prospective cross sectional study conducted in RSCM from March till December 2004. There were 52 OFl's patients fulfilled the inclusion criteria. The clinical pictures were included local wounds and systemic manifestations according to the PEDIS classification with additional modification (the wound's odour and crepitation/gas). Microbiological examination were done culture for aerobic/anaerobic microorganisms and the antibiotics sensitivity test.
