Abstract
The aim was to identify the role of nurses in preventive care for Diabetic Foot injuries. Descriptive-exploratory study, of a quantitative nature. Carried out in a health clinic located in the city of São Paulo, with 65 diabetic patients, between 18 and 90 years old. Among the study participants, the highest percentage of those who showed signs and symptoms of Diabetic Foot Syndrome were among those who had the diagnosis a longer time ago, had greater resistance to changes in habits and adherence to treatment, did not follow the guidelines on foot care and/or had other associated chronic diseases. The nurse is fundamental in early diagnosis, interventions and education on preventive care. The prevention of Diabetic Foot complications depends on the commitment, communication and training of the multidisciplinary team to reduce amputations and morbidity and mortality of diabetics.
