The aim of the study was to explore the association between activities of daily living ( measured using a body-worn sensor) on wound healing in diabetic patients. Since this was an exploratory study, there was no study hypothesis.
Diabetes patients with active foot ulcers were recruited and monitored for activities of daily living while wearing an offloading device.
