The handheld Unidirectional ultrasound vascular Doppler is an instrument that detects blood flow using the principles of the Doppler effect. It can be a very useful tool in assessing how good the blood flow is to the foot or hand. It is a painless test and very similar to taking blood pressure using a stethoscope. It is particularly useful for the assessment of arterial disease but can also be used for venous problems. These vascular Doppler are used for identifying the arterial and venous flow patency. Ankle Brachial Index (ABI) is a simple procedure to detect obstruction in the blood flow. The LifeDop 150R features a non-display, handheld Doppler with superior sound quality, extended battery life, enhanced probe sensitivity, interchangeable probes, and a one-year full warranty. It includes a battery recharging system, so you don’t have to worry about overcharging or draining of the batteries. Features: • Interchangeable Doppler Probes • Unidirectional Doppler • 8MHz Vascular Probe is Standard • Continuous Wave Doppler • 4, 5 and 8 MHz Vascular probes • Rechargeable battery operation • Charger supplied free

Peripheral neuropathy is the prime cause of diabetic foot ulceration. Ulceration, in turn, is the key factor that may precipitate a cascade of events leading to lower-extremity amputation. Checking the loss of Thermal Sense, Vibration sense and protective Touch Sense will help the management of diabetic neuropathy and its effect on the foot. Three important simple devices are packaged in the Neuropathy Assessment Kit (NA03) for the effective management of diabetic neuropathy. The kit contains a Tiptherm, a Vibratip and Monofilament 10gm(25 Nos). TIP THERM® is a simple device for the early diagnosis of symmetrical polyneuropathy by measuring the loss of temperature sensitivity of the skin. TIP THERM® was developed to give the clinician and patient a convenient and easy-to-use method of testing. This device is recommended to use, at a room temperature of 23° C. Failure to perceive variances in temperature in the extremities is the most decisive early symptom of distal symmetric polyneuropathy, a typical ailment accompanying diabetes mellitus (Ziegler 1988). Portable Vibration sense device VIBRATIPTM is a device resembling a small key fob that provides a near-silent vibration of consistent amplitude at a frequency similar to that of a calibrated tuning fork. It is intended for use when testing a person’s vibration perception during routine checks for diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) in people who have type 1 or type 2 diabetes. It is a disposable device works for about 250 patients, and vibrates at 125 Hz with an intensity equivalent to that of a Biothesiometer at 25 Volts. When the patient does not feel the vibration is classified as a high-risk category. MF10GM: Monofilaments 10gm is an effective, convenient, easy to use, relatively inexpensive way of testing for loss of protective touch sense in the feet. It is designed for single-patient use and can be used till 100 bends or filament damage.

Monofilaments MF10GM contain a small strand of filament attached to a visiting card-like handle. When placed upon the skin perpendicularly and applied an amount of pressure before the filament bends or buckles. The point at which the filament bends or buckles is rated in grams of force. 10gm Monofilament is widely accepted by the medical community and recommended by WHO and IDF for evaluating the loss of protective touch sense. The MF10GM Monofilament is intended to be used to determine whether a person with diabetes has the presence of an adequate level of protective sensation in their feet as indicated by having enough tactile sensitivity to perceive 10 grams of force against the skin of their feet. The monofilament is tested on multiple points on the foot of the person to be tested and they should feel the sense in the majority of the test points. If they don’t feel the sense in multiple spots, then it is indicated that they would have lost the protective touch sense. It should be used on adult Diabetic patients on a periodic basis to evaluate changes in sensory perception in the feet due to Diabetic peripheral sensory neuropathy. This device is not a complete replacement for routine sensory evaluation by a health care provider. They are available in a box of 25pcs and cost Rs. 650 inclusive of GST and Courier.

An orchidometer is a medical instrument used to measure the volume of the testicles. Normal volume is 15 to 25 ml; the average is 18 cm³ per testis (range 12 cm³ to 30 cm³). The discrepancy of testicular size with other parameters of maturation can be an important clue to various diseases. Small testes can indicate either primary or secondary hypogonadism. Testicular size can help distinguish between different types of precocious puberty. Since testicular growth is typically the first physical sign of true puberty, one of the most common uses is as confirmation that puberty is beginning in a boy with delay. Large testes (macroorchidism) can be a clue to one of the most common causes of inherited generalized learning disability, fragile X syndrome..

Failure to perceive variances in temperature in the extremities is the most decisive early symptom of distal symmetric polyneuropathy, a typical ailment accompanying diabetes mellitus (Ziegler 1988). Small-fiber Test (HCP) provides an easy-to-use and scientifically validated measure of warm, cool and heat pain thermal sensory thresholds, all clinically useful determinants in the evaluation of diabetic neuropathy. Vibration Perception Threshold (VPT) has been shown to be strongly associated with foot ulceration. VPT determination by using a Digital Biothesiometer has been used to identify peripheral sensory neuropathy and subjects at risk of the foot. Digital Biothesiometer helps us quantitate the threshold and monitor progressive changes or trends on following up testing. Sensory neuropathy increases the risk of foot ulcerations by seven-folds and peripheral arterial disease (PAD) by three folds in people with diabetes. Peripheral neuropathy is the major causal factor in the development of foot ulcerations among diabetic subjects. Early detection helps better prevention. Prevention is better than no cure. 50% of all non-traumatic amputations occur in diabetes who is a high-risk group. Our Neuropathy Analyser model Vibrotherm Dx has inbuilt both VPT and HCP in a single device.

One of the frequent causes of non-traumatic lower-limb amputation is Diabetes and is usually preceded by foot ulcer and infection. The reason of this ulceration is commonly a loss of protective sensation due to peripheral neuropathy, for which there is no prevention strategy. Current research promotes early detection of neuropathy so that secondary prevention measures, such as intensive foot-care education and treatment, can be used for individuals. In an effort to standardize and simplify the detection of insensate foot, the 5.07/10-gm Monofilament is recommended by the International Diabetes Federation and the World Health Organization as a device that can be used by health professionals at every level of care. A standardised filament is pressed against part of the foot. When the filament bends, its tip is exerting a pressure of 10 grams (therefore this monofilament is often referred to as the 10 gram monofilament). If the patient cannot feel the monofilament at certain specified sites on the foot, he/she has lost enough sensation to be at risk of developing a neuropathic ulcer.
