The 2026 issue of the Limb Preservation Journal from Wounds Canada is now available, featuring contributions from six continents and more than a dozen clinical disciplines. Together, the articles span the full spectrum of limb preservation, from bench‑level pathophysiology to patient narrative.

'This issue includes a newly published article by Georgia Krehbiel, MBA; Annkathrin Mathe, MSc; Cyaandi Dove, DPM; Joseph Mills, MD; and David Armstrong, DPM, MD, PhD, which examines one of the most practical tools in modern limb preservation: the 3‑Minute Diabetic Foot Exam.

Titled “The Three‑Minute Diabetic Foot Exam: A Simple Intervention with the Power to Save Limbs,” the article addresses a critical and ongoing challenge in diabetes care—preventable, non‑traumatic lower‑extremity amputation—and presents a structured, time‑efficient solution designed for real‑world clinical practice.

In the journal’s editorial, Editor‑in‑Chief Ahmed Kayssi, MD, highlights the broader significance of the work:

“Krehbiel and colleagues make the case for the three‑minute diabetic foot exam as a population‑level prevention strategy, one designed for the primary care clinician and community health worker who will encounter the at‑risk patient years before the limb preservation specialist does.”
