Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Sudomotor dysfunction diagnostic performance evaluation10 months

The diagnostic performance of the Withings WBS08 will be established using the sensitivity and the specificity for an electrochemical skin conductance threshold (moderate dysfunction and severe dysfunction).

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Evaluate the accuracy of Withings WBS08 to measure the sudomotor function on each foot and by averaging the value on both feet.10 months

The root-mean-square error (RMSE) and the mean absolute error (MAE) between the sudomotor function value measured by the Withings WBS08 and the Sudoscan as reference on each foot and by averagin g both feet.

Compare the diagnostic of Withings WBS08 to diabetes neuropathy questionnaires10 months

The correlation between diabetes neuropathy questionnair es and Withings WBS08.
