abstract = {Objective: To elaborate a clinical evaluation sheet (CES) of the lower limbs (LL) for diabetic foot (DF) prevention.
Methods: Based on literature review, a four-phased CES has been elaborated: phases 1 and 2 contemplate
clinical evaluation (anamnesis and physical evaluation, respectively) with emphasis on feet evaluation and
search for soreness risk factors; phase 3 evaluates feet care and phase 4 describes the main guidelines for this
care. Results: With the completion of phases 1 and 2, a feet soreness risk rating follows. Phase 3 evaluates feet
care with ten questions and phase 4 presents ten educational guidelines for DF prevention. Conclusion: The
proposed CES enables the detection and early intervention on foot soreness risk.},
