Chief Complaint:altered sensorium and anorexia
Rationale/Patho-physiological basis in relation to its diagnosis:

Diabetes Mellitus

Chronic hyperglycemia

Glucose toxicity Irreversible structural changes

Altered functional cell integrity Microvascular changes Macrovascular changes

Altered WBC function Neuropathy Peripheral vascular disease

Risk for infection Loss of nerve function Clogged arteries in the legs

(diffuse) Poor blood flow

Distal symmetric polyneuropathy Body cannot heal efficiently

Altered sensorium Motor alterations in

intrinsic muscles of foot

Diabetic foot infection

-Redness -Temperature -SwellingLoss of function -Pus

- Blue/black discoloration around the sight of infection

Post-operative diagnosis:diabetic foot, left
Rationale/definition:Diabetic foot is an umbrella term for foot problems in patients with diabetes mellitus. Due to arterial abnormalities and diabetic neuropathy, as well as a tendency to delayed wound healing, infection or gangrene of the foot is relatively common. Ten to fifteen percent of diabetic patients develop foot ulcers at some point in their lives and foot related problems are responsible for up to 50% of diabetes related hospital admissions.
Complete Surgical Procedure:BKA, left foot (Below-knee Amputation)
Definition:Amputation is a surgical procedure that involves removal of an extremity/limb (leg or arm) or a part of a limb (such as a toe, finger, foot, or hand), usually as a result of injury, disease, infection, or surgery (to remove tumors from bones and muscles). Amputation of the leg (above and below-knee) is the most common type of amputation procedure performed.
Type of Anesthesia:General
Specific Type:Spinal
Anesthetic Agent: Bupivacane Heavy
Mechanism of Action:
Bupivacaine binds to the intracellular portion of sodium channels and blocks sodium influx into nerve cells, which prevents depolarization. Since pain transmitting nerve fibres tend to be thinner and either unmyelinated or lightly myelinated, the agent can diffuse more readily into them than into thicker and more heavily myelinated nerve fibres like touch, proprioception, etc.
Position: Supine
Incision:Closed (flap) amputation method was performed below the knee
Skin Preparation:left upper thigh to entire left foot
Draping:1 lap, 2 small sheets, and 4 towels
