Client briefing
Diabetic foot is today the leading cause of non-traumatic lower limb amputation. Early diagnosis, including through screening tests such as biothesiometry, is essential in identifying patients at risk of developing this condition.
The solution
Thanks to the particular technology it uses, the Biothesiometer Plus is the only biothesiometer whose measurements are not distorted by the operator. Variability in results caused by the pressure applied is entirely eliminated by its piezoelectric motor. The device makes sure tests are carried out correctly and that readings stay consistent even when different operators perform them. It has also been designed so that the vibrating mechanism does not lose calibration over time, which means no periodic calibration is needed. It is powered by high-performance rechargeable batteries that deliver better results, and its small size and further reduced weight make it very comfortable to use.
