One of the most overlooked of all serious complications of diabetes is cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (CAN), which encompasses damage to the autonomic nerve fibers that innervate the heart and blood vessels, resulting in abnormalities in heart rate control and vascular dynamics. It also demonstrates that autonomic dysfunction can affect daily activities of individuals with diabetes and may invoke potentially life-threatening outcomes. Advances in technology, built on decades of research and clinical testing, now make it possible to objectively identify early stages of CAN with the use of careful measurement of autonomic function and to provide therapeutic choices that are based on symptom control and that might abrogate the underlying disorder. The autonomic nervous system is subdivided into the parasympathetic and sympathetic components that work antagonistically to provide a very fine degree of control over their target organs. In general, the parasympathetic nervous system predominates during rest by slowing heart rate, lowering blood pressure, and promoting digestion. The sympathetic nervous system is responsible for mounting responses to physical and psychological stimuli. The system uses ECG Cardio-Tachogram (R-R interval) and an advanced automatic NIBP (Non-Invasive Blood Pressure) module to conduct a battery of six tests. Being fully automatic, it eliminates the need for manual recordings, readings and calculations. These tests are done with patients' co-operation and the PC onscreen panel helps them to complete the tests successfully. Parasympathetic : Resting ECG : Resting HR Deep Breathing : • Coeff. Of Variation • Expiration Inspiration Ratio Supine to Standing : • Coeff. Of Variation • 30:15 Ratio Valsalva Maneuver : • Coeff. Of Variation • Valsalva Ratio Sympathetic : Postural Hypotension : • Resting BP • BP immediately after standing • BP after standing 1/2/3 minute • Fall in Systolic BP Sustained Handgrip : • Resting BP • BP after sustained handgrip • Increase in Diastolic BP Final Interpretation : • Parasympathetic Function

The Durometer is commonly also known as Shore Meter. There are two variants in this Shore Meter. They are Shore Meter A and Shore meter D. Shore durometer A is a device for measuring the hardness of soft material, typically of polymers, elastomers, and rubbers. Shore Meter D is mainly for hard materials like plastics, steel etc., We are distributing Shore Meter A and all the discussions and descriptions are about them only. Higher numbers on the scale indicate a greater resistance to indentation and thus harder materials. Lower numbers indicate less resistance and softer materials. Durometer measurement scales range from 0 to 100 and simply represent a relative comparison of hardness difference. The durometer has shown consistent reliability in the objective assessment of skin hardness in patients with systemic sclerosis and localized scleroderma. It is an easy-to-use and simple method, which can provide a correct numeric evaluation of hypertrophic scars induration and objective control of therapeutic efficacy during treatment over time. Determination of skin hardness by this instrument has been proven to be accurate and reproducible, both in normal and pathological conditions. Increased foot sole hardness and peripheral neuropathy are suggested to be important risk factors for foot ulceration. In subjects with diabetes, it was found in numerous research that differences and variations in foot sole hardness were found to be significantly different in subjects with and without diabetic neuropathy using Durometer (Shore meter). Hence shore meter was more sensitive and provided a feasible means of measuring foot sole hardness in subjects with diabetic neuropathy. Foot sole hardness in diabetic feet can be considered as a potential determinant of foot sole ulcerations. The durometer has potential use in many dermatological disorders as a tool to be used routinely to demonstrate improvement in treatment, particularly in burn patients where cosmetic appearance and functional status represent major concerns for the patient.
