Diabetic peripheral neuropathy is one of the most common complications of diabetes, potentially leading to loss of sensation, foot ulcerations and eventually amputation. Treatment of these complications can be expensive yet many are avoidable, making early identification and intervention key to improving patient outcomes and reducing health costs.
