- whether a diabetic foot ulcer was assessed, offloaded and escalated appropriately.
- whether vascular, Charcot or infection red flags were recognised at review.
- whether nail surgery, local anaesthetic and consent were managed to a reasonable standard.
- whether wound care and delegated community treatment met the expected standard.
- gait, footwear, orthoses and long-term lower-limb function after injury.
