WHY WAIT? - A CRITICAL DIABETIC FOOT CHECK YOU CAN NOW DO AT HOME
How to Perform Medipin's Diabetic Toes Test At Home
Patients with diabetes can be at risk from nerve damage that affects the feet called NEUROPATHY. Diabetic Neuropathy can lead to numbness and serious complications like ulcers and gangrene and especially the loss of toes and feet.
THE AMERICAN DIABETES ASSOCIATION HIGHLIGHTS THE TIMELY IDENTIFICATION OF NEUROPATHY:
Approximately 50% of patients with diabetes have neuropathy and up to 50% of patients with neuropathy may not have symptoms.
EARLY DIAGNOSIS IS CRITICAL
For the earliest diagnosis The American Diabetes Association recommends testing the skin’s ability to sense temperature or pinprick and Medipin has been designed to make pinprick sensation testing safe, accurate and easy.

SO WHY WAIT UNTIL YOUR REGULAR CHECKUP?
Why not do this easy diabetic toes test at home – using Medipin. Regular home- testing couldn’t be simpler and evidence suggests it can play an important role in helping prevent complications associated with diabetic nerve damage.
The Diabetic Toes Test by Medipin offers patients the opportunity to home-test for neuropathy monthly with a simple system that takes seconds and costs cents using a disposable precision instrument trusted by American health care professionals for many years and a procedure recommended by the ADA.
