20.500.12556/DiRROS-24759 Data in diabetic foot care from current state to a management framework for implementation Background/Objectives: The healthcare data sector is experiencing unprecedented growth, fueled by advances in genomics, medical imaging, and wearable devices. The convergence of universal data standards now provides the common ground needed to translate this data into medical advances. However, a significant implementation gap persists, preventing effective deployment in routine clinical practice, particularly in specialized areas like diabetic foot care. Methods: This paper examines the opportunities presented by modern data methodologies to bridge this gap, contextualized within diabetic foot care, where the paramount goals are patient well-being, tissue preservation, and amputation prevention. Results: The analysis indicates that the synergy of interoperable data and advanced management tools is poised to fundamentally transform healthcare delivery. Interdisciplinary collaboration is identified as the foundational element enabling the timely, coordinated, and evidence-based interventions necessary to achieve critical clinical objectives. Conclusions: The pivotal challenge has shifted from technological capability to effective implementation. Leveraging modern data methodologies is essential for translating potential into tangible improvements in diabetic foot outcomes. In this context, collaborative data management must be recognized as a critical treatment modality itself. Here, “data is tissue”; it must be managed with the same urgency and care to enable success. diabetes diabetic foot electronic health record governance prediction models digital practice guidelines guidelines definition language diabetes registries fair quality of care true false true Angleški jezik Ni določen Neznano 2025-12-17 10:46:56 2025-12-17 10:46:56 2025-12-22 11:55:28 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2025 0 0 Nasl. z nasl. zaslona; Opis vira z dne 17. 12. 2025; str. 1-16 iss. 24, [article no.] 8674 Vol. 14 2025 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno apc 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 616.379 2077-0383 10.3390/jcm14248674 261822467 RAZ_Stotl_Iztok_2025.pdf RAZ_Stotl_Iztok_2025.pdf 1 56C67B40CCE10CA214FB0F8320A0671B 8a5dc8d2840d93cc46109f2e547bf25bc09fdff4dd4462d932e67cf657dfce1a 713b70cd-db2d-11f0-94a7-001a4af901a5 https://dirros.openscience.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=37002 https://www.mdpi.com/2077-0383/14/24/8674 0 7c663913-db2d-11f0-94a7-001a4af901a5 https://dirros.openscience.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=37003 Univerzitetni klinični center Ljubljana 0 0 0
