Risk och protective factors for adherence to wearing therapeutic shoes among people with diabetic foot complications

The aim of the study was to identify factors that are related to adherence to wearing therapeutic shoes among people with diabetes and current or previous foot ulcers. The study tests the null hypothesis that there is no correlation between the explaining factors (independent variables from the Health Belier Model) and adherence to wearing therapeutic shoes. A questionnaire was posted to patients in Region Örebro County and County Västra Götaland.
