Biofeedback to improve walking for diabetic nerve damage
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests a special biofeedback system to help people with diabetic nerve damage walk better. You'll use sensors during treadmill walking to see if real-time feedback can improve your stride and balance.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You can walk about 30 feet (10 meters) on your own without a cane or walker.
- You have been diagnosed with diabetes and diabetic nerve damage in your feet.
- You are healthy enough to walk on a treadmill for 6 minutes at a comfortable pace.
- You have had a foot checkup within the last 6 months and have your doctor's OK to take part.

This study looks at how well people with diabetes-related nerve damage (diabetic peripheral neuropathy) can walk, using a treadmill and walking distance tests. It may help improve understanding of walking limits and how to measure change over time.
This study tests whether special sensory training exercises can improve your balance, walking, and daily physical function if you have type 2 diabetes with nerve damage in your feet. You will do supervised exercises and the researchers will measure how you move and balance before and after.
This study compares two exercise programs (Otago and Beat it) to see which one better improves balance, walking, and quality of life in people with type 2 diabetes and nerve damage in their feet. If you join, you'll do one of these programs and help scientists learn which is more effective.
This study tests whether a supervised exercise program can improve symptoms and quality of life for people with diabetic nerve damage in their feet. It may help reduce pain and improve balance.
This study tests whether a structured exercise program can help improve movement problems caused by nerve damage from type 2 diabetes. If you have diabetic nerve pain in your feet or legs)Skip the training, this program may help you move better and reduce symptoms.
This study tests whether a special electrical stimulation treatment to the soles of the feet during dialysis can improve balance and walking in people with diabetes who have nerve damage in the feet. If it works, it may help reduce fall risk and improve mobility.
