Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy for Diabetic Foot Ulcer Sensation
Effect of Low Frequency Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy on Vibration Perception Threshold and Protective Sensation in Diabetic Foot Ulcer
Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycaemia for extended periods of time, which causes damage to peripheral nerves, resulting in sensory, motor and autonomic dysfunction. The study will aim to assess the effect of the Low pulse electromagnetic field therapy in VPT and protective sensation in the diabetic foot ulcer. The total number of participants will be 42 (calculated by epi tool) and the participants are to be divided among two groups. Non Probability Consecutive sampling technique will be used for this study.
The data collection tools will be Wagner Classification System for Diabetic Foot Ulcers, Numerical Pain Rating Scale, Goniometry, 10 g monofilament, Tuning Fork 128 Hz will be used. After meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria and taking the written and verbal informed consent participants in one group will receive (low frequency pulsed electromagnatic field therapy and ankle Range of Motion) and other group will be receive (Sham PEMF and ankle Range of motion). Both interventions will be given three times weekly (or every other day) for 6 weeks. Vibrations perception, protective sensation, pain, ankle ROM and will be the outcome measures of the study. The data will be collected at baseline and 6 weeks. The data will be analyzed by using SPSS 23 and interpreted by using MS Word.

Vibration Perception Threshold
기간: 6 week
|
Vibration perception threshold will be measured by using Tuning Fork 128 Hz. that check either the patient sense the vibration or not.
if person feel sensation grater than 10 second indicate decrease vibration perception.

Protective Sensation Score as Assessed by the 10-g Monofilament Test (0-10 Total Score).
기간: 6 weeks
|
Protective sensation will be assessed using the 10-g monofilament at 10 standardized plantar sites.
One point is awarded for each site where the participant correctly perceives the monofilament, yielding a total score ranging from 0 to 10. Higher scores indicate better protective sensation.

Diabetic peripheral neuropathy
기간: 6 weeks
|
Diabetic peripheral neuropathy will be measured by using Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument (MNSI) Physical Assessment, the decrease in score showed improvement the total score consisting of 5 per foot overall 10, 0 indicate foot is healthy and 10 indicate worse condition.
