Prevention of Plantar Ulcers in People with Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy using Pressure-Sensing Shoe Insoles
June 1, 2017
The SurroSense Rx system is a set of pressure-sensing shoe insoles that connect wirelessly to a proprietary smartwatch and is intended for people with diabetes who have mild to moderate sensory loss associated with diabetic peripheral neuropathy, or nerve damage.
By providing real-time alerts about plantar pressure distributions, or the area of pressure between the foot and the surface supporting it, users of the SurroSense Rx system can alter their activities in order to relieve unsafe pressures.
