Abstract

Background: Uncontrolled diabetic blood sugar can lead to chronic complications of motor neuropathy. Changes in foot shape (deformity) result in changes in foot biomechanics, so there is a high risk of developing diabetic foot ulcers.

Aim: This study aimed to identify diabetic foot deformities in diabetes.

Methods: The research design used descriptive quantitative observational categories. The population in this study were all patients suffering from type 2 diabetes mellitus at the Kebonsari Health Center Surabaya, which was examined in April – May 2020. The sampling technique used was incidental sampling with a sample size of 120 respondents. The research instrument used was an observation sheet to observe the anatomical deformity of the foot. The research analysis uses the frequency of each category (n) and the presentation of each category (%).

Results: The results showed that 96 people were Kallus (80%), Corn 66 people (55%), Burning 51 people (42.5%), Hammer toe 27 (22%), and Charcot foot 60 people (50%).

Conclusion: Diabetic foot deformities in diabetic are callus, corn, burnion, hammer toe, and Charcot foot caused by the duration of suffering from diabetes mellitus and inappropriate shoes. It is recommended that periodic examinations of diabetics need to be carried out to determine the deformity of the diabetic foot to prevent diabetic foot ulcers.
