This CME meeting will focus on the management of diabetic lower extremity and other chronic wounds. The meeting will include top experts from all over the world and will facilitate interaction between small and big pharma and academicians.

What is this meeting about?

Diabetic foot problems significantly impair the quality of life of diabetic patients. Each year in the United States, these complications lead to more than 750,000 new diabetic foot ulcers and 70,000 lower extremity amputations. This extraordinary three day symposium will promote better understanding of the unmet management needs of Diabetic Lower Extremity (DLE) complications and the new therapeutic approaches that are currently under development.
