About this study

This randomized controlled trial (RCT) aims to evaluate the effectiveness of two different structured exercise interventions compared to standard care during active diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) treatment. Participants will be allocated to one of three groups: Upper Body Exercise (UBE), Combined Exercise (CE), or Standard Care Control (SC). The interventions are designed to improve cardiorespiratory fitness-as measured by changes in VO₂peak-and other secondary clinical, metabolic, vascular, inflammatory, muscular, and quality-of-life outcomes while ensuring proper offloading and wound management.
