LEDU episodes were constructed from claims data by linking sequential services until a 60-day clean period without LEDU-related claims was observed, which signified the end of an episode. Outcomes assessed within each completed episode included major and minor amputations, as well as emergency department (ED) visits, hospital readmissions, or care transitions to other sites of service, such as skilled nursing facilities.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>There were &gt;2 million eligible episodes identified in the CMS database, of which 1244 LEDU episodes (622 in each cohort) met study eligibility and were analysed. Based on the analysis, approximately one major amputation was prevented for every 32 patients treated with DLAM as compared to debridement alone. Inpatient admissions, ED visits and skilled nursing facility visits were significantly reduced in the DLAM cohort.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Medicare patients treated with DLAM experienced significantly lower rates of major amputations and reduced healthcare use compared with those treated with debridement alone.
