Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of the research was to find and compare the effects of skin stretch sensory stimuli and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) on balance in diabetic neuropathy. Randomized controlled trial done at District Headquarter hospital Okara. The sample size was 46. The subjects were divided into 3 groups, 15 subjects in skin stretch sensory stimuli group, 15 subjects in TENS group and 16 subjects in control group. Study duration was of 6 month. Sampling technique applied was convenient non-probability sampling. Patients aged range from 45 to 80 years, having moderate peripheral neuropathy, and decrease sensations were included. Tools used in this study were Berg Balance scale and Toronto clinical neuropathy score system. Data was being analyzed through Spss 21.


Clinical Trial Description

Literature shows that various studies was done on diabetic patients for pain reduction, increase proprioception, improve muscle function and muscle recruitment by using kinesio tape and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation. There is particularly limited literature available on the effects of skin stretch sensory stimuli on balance in DN patients. Therefore, based on the literature study, there is crucial need for studying the effects of skin stretch sensory stimuli and TENS as a treatment approach. Thus, the current study will be an attempt to know the results of skin stretch sensory stimuli and TENS in DN patients. ;
