Abstract: Diabetic neuropathy (DN) is a prevalent and debilitating complication of diabetes mellitus, characterized by progressive nerve dysfunction that significantly affects the quality of life. Early detection and accurate monitoring of neuropathy progression are crucial for effective management and intervention. Biothesiometry, a non-invasive technique that measures vibratory perception threshold (VPT), has emerged as a valuable tool in screening, diagnosing, and assessing the severity and progression of diabetic neuropathy. This study explores the role of biothesiometry in diabetic neuropathy, focusing on its ability to detect early-stage neuropathy, classify the severity of nerve damage, and track disease progression over time. The biothesiometer measures VPT at multiple foot sites (e.g., big toe, arch, heel), with voltage levels ranging from 0-50 V, corresponding to different stages of neuropathy: normal (0-15 V), mild (16-20 V), moderate (21-25 V), and severe (>25 V). By assessing the response of Pacinian and Meissner corpuscles, which detect vibratory stimuli at specific frequencies, biothesiometry provides objective, reproducible data on sensory nerve function. Additionally, the method calculates a six-point average voltage, identifying areas of minimal and maximal nerve damage. This study demonstrates the diagnostic and prognostic value of biothesiometry in identifying subclinical neuropathy, monitoring progression, and evaluating treatment efficacy. Biothesiometry proves to be a reliable, non-invasive method for managing diabetic neuropathy and could be integrated into routine clinical practice to improve patient care and outcomes.
