Novel Vibrating Foot Orthoses for Improving Tactile Sensation in Type 2 Diabetes With Peripheral Neuropathy 150 150 Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering (TNSRE)

Abstract:

Objective: Improving tactile sensation by vibrating insoles was recommended to prevent foot ulcers in diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). Lack of an insole design for diabetics was a challenge. Clinical trials on applying vibrating insoles with noise and stochastic resonance (SR) stimulating tactile were also required. In this study, vibrating foot …
