What is Diabetic Polyneuropathy?

• Diabetic Polyneuropathy is a disease that affects
  peripheral nerves. Due to this damage to the
  nerve fibres, an individuals ability to sense
  thermal (hot), cold, and pain diminishes.

Sensitometer HCP

• A Sensitometer HCP (Hot, Cold, Pain) is used to
  detect diabetic polyneuropathy. This detection is
  performed by observing any change in the level of
  tolerance to heat and cold perception in the
  patients foot.

KODYS ELITE HCP - New Generation Digital
Neuropathy Analyser

• The procedure of thermal testing is vital in
  evaluating small-calibre A-delta and C-fibres.
  These fibres are the primary transmitters of
  thermal and pain sensation.
• Before beginning thermal testing, the technician
  applies a thermal probe on the patients skin to
  heat or cool the skin.
• When the patient reacts to the temperature
  stimuli, he or she raises their hands.
• The sensory thermal threshold is recorded with a
  comparison of the normal values.
