Abstract

The invention relates to a diabetic peripheral neuropathy screening device. The screening device is provided with a tuning fork, a left foot-shaped ball and a right foot-shaped ball; the left foot-shaped ball is installed on a left arm of the tuning fork, the right foot-shaped ball is arranged on a right arm of the tuning fork, and the left foot-shaped ball is provided with left foot protrusions and a monofilament assembly; the right foot-shaped ball is provided with right foot protrusions and a fine needle assembly. The screen device has the advantages that the tuning fork used for pallesthesia of diabetic peripheral neuropathy, a percussion hammer required by ankle jerk examinations, a monofilament required by pressure sense examinations and a thin needle used for acupuncture pain examinations are integrated, the problems that diabetic peripheral neuropathy screening tools are complex and diversified and the operability is poor are solved, the screening tools are more comprehensive,portable and simple, and the screening device facilitates clinical application.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medical devices, in particular to a screening device for diabetic peripheral neuropathy. Background technique [0002] Diabetic peripheral neuropathy is defined as the development of symptoms associated with peripheral nerve dysfunction in a diabetic patient when other causes have been ruled out. At present, diabetic patients are showing an obvious upward trend. Diabetic neuropathy is one of the most important chronic complications of diabetes. Diabetic neuropathy has the characteristics of universality, invisibility and disability. Clinical symptoms are symmetrical pain and paresthesia, and lower extremity symptoms are more common than upper extremity symptoms. Abnormal paresthesias include numbness, ants walking, insect crawling, fever, and electric shock-like sensations, often up to the knee from the distal toes, and patients have the feeling of wearing socks and gloves. In severe cases of sensory im...
