Development and Pilot Testing of a Diabetes Foot Care and Complications Questionnaire for Adults with Diabetes in Oman: The Diabetic Foot Disease and Foot Care Questionnaire.

Conclusions: Although self-reported diabetes-related foot complications were common in this population, foot self-care practices were inadequate. These findings suggest a need for the provision of regular foot care education to patients with diabetes. Future research should explore barriers to recommended foot self-care practices.
