The survey of studies was carried out using electronic databases: Virtual Health Library (VHL) and Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO). For this purpose, the following Health Sciences Descriptors (DECs) were used, namely: “Assessment”, “Diabetes Mellitus”, “Diabetic Foot”. The Boolean operators “AND” and “OR” were used.
