Abstract

Few studies have addressed the sociodemographic characteristics and risk of wound development in northeastern Brazil. The objective of the study was to determine the prevalence of wound risk and the related factors in people with diabetes in the municipality of Parnaíba, Piauí State, Brazil. A cross-sectional study was conducted with 300 people with diabetes. The volunteers were assessed using a sociodemographic questionnaire, a 10 g monofilament, a 128 Hz tuning fork, a reflex hammer, and a wound risk rating scale. Male sex (OR 2.33, 95% CI 1.22-4.42), age (OR 1.03, 95% CI 1.01-1.05), physical inactivity (OR 2.35, 95% CI 1.26-4.38), and a longer duration of diabetes (OR 3.28, 95% CI 1.56-6.91) were associated with wound risk. This study demonstrated a high wound risk related to age, male sex, duration of diabetes, and physical inactivity and a high prevalence of complications such as diabetic peripheral neuropathy and amputations.
