All-in-One Fully Automated Diabetic Foot Evaluation Lab Model - DIABETIK AUTOLAB:
The DIABETIK AUTOLAB is a highly sophisticated, fully automated system designed to streamline the evaluation and management of diabetic foot complications. It integrates a range of diagnostic features into one cohesive platform, enabling healthcare professionals to perform comprehensive assessments efficiently and accurately.
Key Features and Functions:
1. Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI) Assessment
o A key diagnostic tool for evaluating peripheral arterial disease (PAD) by comparing the blood pressure in the ankle with the blood pressure in the arm.
2. Toe-Brachial Index (TBI) Measurement
o Focused on the measurement of blood flow in the toes, this is particularly useful for detecting PAD in diabetic patients who may not have easily palpable pulses in the ankles.
3. Doppler Velocity Waveform Analysis
o Provides real-time analysis of blood flow velocities using Doppler technology and PPG technology to assess vascular health and circulation in the lower extremities.
4. Protective Touch Monofilament (10 gm) Testing
o Standardized monofilament test for assessing sensation in the feet, which is crucial for detecting diabetic neuropathy and preventing foot ulcers.
5. Biothesiometry for Vibration Perception
o Measures the ability to sense vibration, another important diagnostic parameter for detecting diabetic neuropathy, especially in early stages.
6. Plantar Foot Pressure Mapping with Podiascan
o Advanced pressure mapping technology that assesses foot pressure distribution, helping identify areas at risk of ulceration or injury.
7. Foot Temperature Monitoring
o Monitors temperature differences across the foot, which can indicate inflammation or potential infection, offering valuable early warning signs for complications.
Advanced Diagnostic Tests:
• Segmental Doppler Studies
o Detailed evaluation of blood flow in different segments of the arterial system, providing insights into the severity of vascular diseases.
• Segmental Pulse Volume Recording (PVR)
o Measures changes in blood volume in the limbs to assess arterial health and circulation patterns.
• Carotid Doppler Examination
o Non-invasive testing of the carotid arteries to assess for signs of atherosclerosis or other vascular issues that could impact circulation.
• Penile Doppler Assessment
o Evaluates blood flow to the penile region, which is particularly relevant in diabetic patients at risk for erectile dysfunction due to vascular and neurological complications.
• Monofilament Testing & Biothesiometry for Hand Sensation
o Monofilament and Biothesiometry testing for the hands and penile area, further expanding the evaluation of neuropathy, sensation loss and possibly the impotence.
Reporting & Mobility:
• Comprehensive Reporting
o The DIABETIK AUTOLAB can generate up to 17 pages of detailed diagnostic reports that encompass all evaluations, making it easy to track and document patient progress over time.
• Convenient Mobile Trolley
o The unit comes with a practical mobile trolley, designed to carry all necessary accessories, making it portable and easy to integrate into various healthcare settings (computer and printer are not included).
Benefits:
• Time-saving: Fully automated processes reduce the time required for comprehensive foot evaluations.
• Accuracy and Consistency: High-tech sensors and diagnostic features offer more precise measurements, improving the reliability of assessments.
• Early Detection: The combination of multiple diagnostic tests allows for early detection of complications such as neuropathy, poor circulation, and ulceration risk.
• Holistic Evaluation: By combining vascular, sensory, and pressure assessments, healthcare providers get a complete picture of a patient’s foot health.
The DIABETIK AUTOLAB represents a breakthrough in diabetic foot care, empowering clinicians with the tools needed to provide better, faster, and more effective care to patients at risk of serious diabetic foot complications.
