| description | <b>Backgraund/Objetive</b>: Diabetic peripheral neuropathy is a condition that affects the motor, sensory, and autonomic fibers of the peripheral nervous system, with distal polyneuropathy being its most common form. Traditional methods for diagnosing sensory loss, such as tactile assessment, temperature evaluation, and vibratory perception threshold testing, are labor intensive and time consuming. <b>Results</b>: To effectively assess thermal and vibratory sensitivity, NerveCheck Master is an affordable and portable device that uses standardized stimuli to measure sensory response. <b>Conclusions</b>: Compared to traditional methods like the infrared laser thermometer, the Rydel–Seiffer tuning fork, and the Semmes–Weinstein monofilament, this device provides definitive results regarding the severity of DPN. |
