According to texts there is relation between AMPUTATION and some factors like: male sex, neuropathy, vascular diseases, uncontrolled blood sugar, DIABETES lasting more than 10 years and abnormal biomechanics of foot. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between the rate of AMPUTATION of diabetic foot with some other variables of patients such as age, sex, where they live and also with specific factors of disease (like lasting time of DIABETES, DIABETES treatment).Subjects and Methods: This is an analytical descriptive study that performs retrospective work on the file of patients with diabetic foot infection who were admitted in Razee hospital in Ahvaz between years 1381-1383. A total of 198 patients were divided in two groups (with and without AMPUTATION) statistical analyses were employed using SPSS for windows by different tests.Results: The results showed, that there was not an significant relationship between the rate of AMPUTATION and sex, age, site of living, last time of foot wound and foot infection (P>0.05), but there was meaningful relationship between the rate of AMPUTATION with the duration of DIABETES and the treatment of the disease (P<0.05).Conclusion: According to the results there is a suggestion for screening and precocious distinguish of DIABETES and immediate treatment for diabetic patient, Also it is recommended to screen for people with positive family history for DIABETES aged less than 45 and in patients more than 45 years overall condition every 3 years for preventing of vascular problems.
