Exercise program for nerve damage from diabetes
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests if a supervised exercise program can help improve movement problems caused by diabetic peripheral neuropathy (nerve damage from diabetes). If you have type 2 diabetes and nerve damage in your feet or legs, this program might help you walk better and feel stronger.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 45 and 75 years old
- You have type 2 diabetes and nerve damage in your feet or legs (confirmed by a vibration test or light touch test)
- You are currently not very physically active (sedentary or irregularly active)
- You can walk with some help but do not need someone to hold you up all the time
- You have not had a diabetic foot ulcer for at least one month
- You have not lost more than a few toes (your big toe is still there)

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 trial tests if a special sensory training program can improve balance, walking, and daily function in people with type 2 diabetes who have nerve damage (neuropathy). It may help you move better and feel more steady on your feet.
This study tests a special hand therapy program that uses different senses (like touch and movement) to help improve feeling and hand function in people with nerve damage from diabetes. The goal is to see if this therapy can help you use your hands better in daily life.
This study compares two exercise programs—Otago and Beat it—to see which helps people with type 2 diabetes and nerve damage in their feet improve their balance, walking ability, and quality of life. Both programs use targeted exercises to strengthen legs and improve stability.
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.
