Reflexes, Tuning Forks & Monofilaments: Inside the Diabetic Foot Exam

Dela

This episode breaks down the neurological exam of the diabetic foot, explaining reflexes, vibration testing, monofilament assessment, proprioception, pinprick and temperature testing, and the autonomic changes that lead to dry skin and fissures.

It shows how different nerve fibers produce paradoxical symptoms, why loss of protective sensation causes silent injuries and ulcers, and why podiatry, vascular assessment and offloading are essential for limb preservation.
