This is a single-blinded Randomized Controlled trial (RCT) study involving diabetic patients with (T1DM) and (T2DM) attending endocrine/diabetes, as well as, diabetic foot specialized surgery clinics for routine follow-ups at Jordan University Hospital (JUH) between 17 July 2022 and 30 Dec 2022.
The study evaluated the impacts of multidisciplinary approach in improving diabetic foot care. The clinical pharmacist role was to assess disease control, and to identify patients' therapeutic and educational needs through well-structured three months follow-up interviews with patients and/or their family members.
Moreover, the study investigated the impacts of multidisciplinary approach on health-related Quality of Life (QoL) at baseline and at the end of the study. Economic outcomes were also investigated relating to hospitalizations, length of stay, and cost of treatments.
The control group received standard care by hospital staff.
