This document discusses diabetic foot management and prevention. It covers neuropathy, vascular disease, infection risk and treatment options. Sensory testing like monofilaments can identify high-risk patients. Imaging and tests like ABI, toe pressures and oximetry evaluate vascular status. A multidisciplinary approach is needed to address structural, neurological and vascular issues. Treatment may include offloading, wound care, antibiotics, revascularization or amputation depending on the specific patient presentation and risk factors.

Feeding plate for a newborn with Cleft Palate.pptxSatvikaPrasad
A feeding plate is a prosthetic device used for newborns with a cleft palate to assist in feeding and improve nutrition intake. From a prosthodontic perspective, this plate acts as a barrier between the oral and nasal cavities, facilitating effective sucking and swallowing by providing a more normal anatomical structure. It helps to prevent milk from entering the nasal passage, thereby reducing the risk of aspiration and enhancing the infant's ability to feed efficiently. The feeding plate also aids in the development of the oral muscles and can contribute to better growth and weight gain. Its custom fabrication and proper fitting by a prosthodontist are crucial for ensuring comfort and functionality, as well as for minimizing potential complications. Early intervention with a feeding plate can significantly improve the quality of life for both the infant and the parents.
