Filter by:Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy (DPN) is the common complication seen in the diabetic patients. Moreover, it will lead to another complication as disabilities and difficulties in activities of daily living (ADL). Most of the intervention for diabetes and diabetic neuropathic patients are mostly focusing on the prevention of foot ulcer. Diabetic foot care can prevent only for diabetes-related foot ulcer and foot amputation. It cannot be reduced DPN and cannot be improved the activities of daily living of the patient with DPN. Moreover, there is the restriction of weight-bearing exercise on the recommendation of exercises for the patients with DPN. Therefore, exercise program which may be suitable for all the patients with DPN was introduced in this study to improve ADL and decrease the neuropathic symptoms in the diabetic patients. Compliance with exercise or intervention is not only critical to get adherence but also for the long-term use of its. Easy to do exercise in the short duration which can able to do on their own in their home promote their compliance and adherence to the exercises. In this study, the effectiveness of exercises in the patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy was examined to fulfill the requirement of exercises which is simple and can be done in a short time. The objective of the study is to examine the effectiveness of exercise in the patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy.
This study is designed to identify a titration regimen of ABX-1431 in adults with neuropathic pain with satisfactory tolerability to central nervous system (CNS) adverse events (AEs). During the course of this study, each participant will take a daily dose of ABX-1431 or a matching placebo for 28 days.
The trend of diabetes prevalence was increased by comparing these two national surveys in 2009 and 2014. However, the studies only focused on the prevalence and risk of diabetes and non-communicable diseases in Myanmar. The study focused on the common complications of Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy (DPN) is rare. The studies in other countries showed high prevalence rate and under-diagnosis of DPN. Most of the patients with DPN did not complain about their symptoms because of without prominent symptoms. DPN is the major complication of diabetes. According to the international studies, DPN has the hidden epidemic and is the common causes which can lead to disability and decreased the quality of life in diabetes. Therefore, the study focused on the prevalence of DPN and its impact on the ADLs is obligatory as the descriptive study to explore the actual situation. Nursing care is not only for the patients in the hospital but also for the people in the community. Moreover, the nurses have to focus on all levels of prevention. Diabetes is the lifelong diseases and accessibility of health care for everyone with diabetes is a very important issue in the era with increased prevalence of diabetes. Therefore, we all have to focus not only on the primary prevention but also on the secondary and tertiary prevention of diabetes. The secondary and tertiary prevention in the diabetic patients also means the primary prevention of other diseases and disabilities (the complications of diabetes). For diabetic neuropathic patients, maintaining normal daily living is very important liked everyone. The objective of this study is to evaluate the prevalence of DPN and DPNP in type 2 diabetic patients and impact on the activities of daily living. The descriptive, cross-sectional study design will be used in this study. The inclusion criteria are the person aged over 25 years of age who had already diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus, taking any anti-glycemic treatment. The persons who are suffering from neuropathy and neuropathic pain other than diabetes, severe illness of diabetic patients, mental illness and alcoholism will be excluded from this study. The patients who meet the inclusion criteria and come to outpatient diabetic clinics at YGH, NOGH, EYGH, and WYGH will be chosen as a sample after obtaining informed consent. Data collection will be done at this outpatients diabetic clinic of these four hospitals. This study has already obtained ethical clearance from Nursing Science Ethical Review Committee, Graduate School of Health Sciences, Okayama University, Japan with the review number D1605. It will be carrying out after obtaining approval from Department of Medical Research, Myanmar. At the outset, informed consent will be obtained with detailed information about the purpose of research, the part they need to participate, possible benefits and their rights to withdraw.
The purpose of this study is to conduct an interventional, one year, randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled trial with Liraglutide in patients with type 2 diabetes (diabetes duration of >6 months and <10 years, HbA1c <10%) to evaluate its effects on the peripheral autonomic nervous system, as well as inflammatory markers, and measures of oxidative and nitrosative stress.
The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of passive vibration (PV) in improving balance and sensation in patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN).
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disorder, characterized by hyperglycemia and metabolic disorders, resulting in changes in insulin secretion and / or action. Physical function is critical for functional independence, and chronic diseases such as diabetes can lead to functional decline, and diabetes mellitus is a major contributor to the progression of sarcopenia and physical disability. DM is also known to have a strong associated with the development of peripheral arterial disease. Peripheral arterial disease is characterized by obstruction of the arteries of the lower limbs, leading to a low oxygenation of the muscles of the lower extremities. Among the physiotherapeutic resources that can be used, phototherapy involves the use of light for the treatment of muscular injuries, by modulating the physiological processes associated with the repair process. Clinical trials show that light emitting diode (LED) is a technique that interferes with muscle strength, generating an increase in maximal voluntary contraction and peak torque. It is hypothesized that the LED application is capable of improving the muscular strength, fatigue, functional performance and blood flow capabilities in individuals with diabetes. It is also expected that the results of this study may contribute to and increase the resources used by physiotherapists within the clinical scope, contributing to the care of diabetic patients.
The aims of this study are to determine the prevalence of diabetic peripheral neuropathy among the diabetic patients, to determine the association between the clinical profiles of the diabetic patients (diabetes type, diabetes duration, HbA1c, body mass index, hypertension, total cholesterol) and the diabetic peripheral neuropathy DPN and the rational poly pharmacy used to control pain.
Chronic obliterative arteriopathy of the inferior limbs is a frequent condition observed in diabetics. The later stages induce pain at rest and trophic disorders (ulcer, gangrene) that lead to chronic limb ischemia. Without possible surgical revascularization ,pain management and tissue healing are used to avoid amputation. Prevalence of diabetes is twice higher in Reunion Island than in metropolitan France. As a consequence, the rate co-morbobidities, such as chronic obliterative arteriopathy of the inferior limbs, is also increases. This study compares the efficiency of two analgesic treatments in diabetics with forefoot injuries.
This is a controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy of an Sequential Contraction Compression Device (SCCD) on the symptomatology of Painful Diabetic Neuropathy. Subjects will be divided into a control group where they will be monitored while continuing with their current treatment regimen and into a treatment group where they will continue with their current regimen and have SCCD therapy added. Subjects will be evaluated for Subjective Pain levels, quality of life, breakthrough drug use, sleep levels, and objectively with a Quantitative Sensory Testing device. The trial duration is 30 days.
The investigators will evaluate the effectiveness and safety of acupuncture treatment in refractory neuropathic pain patients.
