Nursing Experience of Tibial Transverse Transport Combined with VSD in Treating an Elderly Patient with Diabetic Foot
This article summarizes the nursing experience of tibial transverse transport combined with vacuum sealing drainage (VSD) in an elderly patient with diabetic foot. Key nursing interventions included improving lower limb blood supply through tibial transverse transport and controlling wound infection while promoting healing via VSD. Tailored strategies such as individualized glycemic control, pain management, nutritional support, and psychological care were implemented considering the geriatric patient’s needs. Enhanced postoperative care and rehabilitation guidance were provided to prevent complications. After 61 days of treatment, the patient achieved successful limb salvage with well-healed wounds, stable blood glucose, sustained clinical improvement, and significantly enhanced quality of life.
