It makes use of easy-to-use touchscreen, onboard step-by-step instructions, presents improved temperature compensation, real-time nerve response display and other enhancements.
Peripheral neuropathy is the damage caused to peripheral nerves affecting 30% aged population. Health providers have stated that early detection of this disease can reduce the patient’s risk of foot ulcers, falls, pain and other complications.
