dc.description.abstractDiabetic foot is a complication that carries a considerable risk in diabetic patients. The consequent loss of protective sensitivity in the lower limbs requires an early diagnosis due to the imminent possibility of ulceration or amputation of the affected limb. To assess the loss of protective sensitivity, the 10 gf Semmes-Weinstein (SW) monofilament is the most used first-line procedure. However, the used device is most often non-calibrated and its feedback can lead to decision errors. In this paper we present an equipment that is able to automatically conduct a metrological verification and evaluation of the 10 gf SW monofilament in the assessment of the loss of protective sensitivity. Additionally, the pro posed equipment is able to simulate the practicioner’s procedure, or can be used for training purposes, providing force-feedback information. After calibration, displacement vs. buckling force contours were ploted for three distinct monofilaments, confirming then ability of the equipment to provide fast, detailed and precise information.pt_PT
