Objective: To investigate the factors associated with at-risk foot in elderly people with diabetes in the city of Itamaraju, Bahia. Methods: This is an analytical cross-sectional study that will be conducted with elderly individuals enrolled and cared for in basic health units in Itamaraju, Bahia. Primary data will be collected using instruments from the American Diabetes Association Foot Care Interest Group Task Force Report, endorsed by the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists, and secondary data will be gathered from participants' medical records. Quantitative data will also be collected through an electronic form completed by researchers with participants.
