Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Surgery - Percutaneous Isolated Limb Perfusion (PILP) delivery
Treatment: Drugs - Timentin

Experimental: Treatment Group - The Treatment Group received intravenous Timentin prior to their PILP procedure.

Active comparator: Control Group - The Control Group received standard dosings of intravenous Timentin plus other standard care.


Treatment: Surgery: Percutaneous Isolated Limb Perfusion (PILP) delivery
The Percutaneous Isolated Limb Perfusion (PILP) delivery intervention procedure enables the use of existing antibiotic therapies in a more targeted and aggressive fashion; it addresses limitations associated with the use of conventional antibiotic drug delivery. As part of the procedure, the circulation of the limb is isolated separately from the general circulatory system enabling the delivery of antibiotic at high therapeutic doses that are not achievable when standard doses are administered intravenously.

Treatment: Drugs: Timentin
The Control Group will receive standard dosings of intravenous Timentin plus other standard care.

Summary
Brief summary
The use of the Percutaneous Isolated Limb Procedure (PILP) which enables the use of existing antibiotic therapies in a more targeted and concentrated fashion in patients with diabetes who have a significant lower limb infection and it is deemed that IV antibiotics are needed in order to salvage the limb or life.
