A differentiated approach to predicting amputation levels based on threshold TcpO₂ values in patients with ischemic lesions associated with diabetes mellitus

Peripheral artery disease in patients with diabetes mellitus frequently leads to chronic limb-threatening ischemia and lower-limb amputation. Determining the optimal amputation level is crucial for preserving limb function; however, the absence of universal transcutaneous oximetry (TcpO₂) threshold values—particularly...
