Non-weight Bearing Exercise for Accelerated Healing of Diabetic Foot Ulcers

The goal of this study is to improve the therapeutic management of diabetic foot ulcers (DFU). The main questions to answer are if a program of non-weight bearing exercise helps the DFU heal faster than standard wound care. This randomized clinical trial will determine how blood flow to the ulcer and whole body metabolism may be improved with exercise. Participants will be randomized to either exercise + standard wound care or standard wound care alone and undergo testing for leg blood flow, fitness and measures of metabolism through blood draws. The intervention period is 6-weeks. Eligible participants must have an existing foot ulcer uncomplicated by infection and be medically cleared to exercise.
