Electrical Stimulation for Nerve Damage From Diabetes
Part of Brain & nervous system, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests whether a special electrical stimulation device can reduce nerve pain and improve quality of life in people with diabetes-related nerve damage in the legs. The treatment is non-invasive and may help reduce symptoms and improve walking ability.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with diabetes
- You are 40 years old or older
- You have nerve damage symptoms in your lower legs or feet lasting at least 3 months
- You have reduced blood flow in your lower limbs (confirmed by duplex ultrasound)
- You do not have a pacemaker, defibrillator, or other implanted nerve stimulator
- You are able to attend and participate in treatment sessions without significant mobility limitations

This trial tests whether using a non-invasive device to stimulate the vagus nerve can reduce nerve pain and improve function in people with diabetic neuropathy. It may be a good option if you have burning or electric-shock-like foot pain despite standard diabetes care.
This study compares two types of electrical stimulation (high tone power therapy and TENS) to see which works better for nerve pain caused by diabetes. It may help patients find a non-drug way to manage their pain.
This trial studies whether a spinal cord stimulator can reduce pain from diabetic nerve damage in the legs. It focuses on people with long-lasting type 2 diabetes and significant, treatment-resistant pain.
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.
This trial tests a special device that uses mild electrical pulses to help improve problems caused by diabetic nerve damage, such as numbness and pain in the feet. If you have diabetic neuropathy and can walk on your own, this study may be a good option.
This study tests if a spinal cord stimulator (a device that sends mild electrical pulses to the spine) can relieve severe leg pain caused by diabetic nerve damage and poor blood flow. It may help people who have not found enough relief from other treatments.
