Many of us do not have to look far when it comes to the devastation that falls can have, particularly as we age. We all know the stats: The increase in morbidity and mortality after a hip fracture from an errant step. This has only been made worse, no doubt, by the change in habits that has occurred during the pandemic.

Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is one of the most serious diabetic complications. DFU is an open wound that usually occurs in the foot sole due to poor blood glucose control, peripheral neuropathy, and poor circulation. The human amniotic allograft membrane is a biological wound dressing derived from the amniotic membrane.

Ankle osteoarthritis (OA) is a debilitating health condition that is increasing in prevalence. Currently, there are no evidence-based guidelines for managing ankle OA. One of the current challenges to establishing guidelines is the lack of a widely agreed-upon set of outcome measures that are consistently used in ankle OA research.
