| Abstract: | Aim: Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is an important complication and contributes to the morbidity of diabetes. Evidence indicates early detection of DPN results in fewer foot ulcers and amputations. The aim of this study was to compare different screening modalities in the detection of DPN in a primary care setting. [Excerpt] |
