简要总结
Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy (DPN) is the common complication seen in the diabetic patients. Moreover, it will lead to another complication as disabilities and difficulties in activities of daily living (ADL). Most of the intervention for diabetes and diabetic neuropathic patients are mostly focusing on the prevention of foot ulcer. Diabetic foot care can prevent only for diabetes-related foot ulcer and foot amputation. It cannot be reduced DPN and cannot be improved the activities of daily living of the patient with DPN. Moreover, there is the restriction of weight-bearing exercise on the recommendation of exercises for the patients with DPN. Therefore, exercise program which may be suitable for all the patients with DPN was introduced in this study to improve ADL and decrease the neuropathic symptoms in the diabetic patients.
Compliance with exercise or intervention is not only critical to get adherence but also for the long-term use of its. Easy to do exercise in the short duration which can able to do on their own in their home promote their compliance and adherence to the exercises. In this study, the effectiveness of exercises in the patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy was examined to fulfill the requirement of exercises which is simple and can be done in a short time. The objective of the study is to examine the effectiveness of exercise in the patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy.
