Screening for diabetic polyneuropathy (DP) is advisable for all patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) after 5 years the detection of the disease. The aim of the study was to evaluate the vibration sensitivity disorders in T1DM patients using Vibratip device for early diagnosis of DP.
Materials and methods: 509 patients with T1DM (224 women and 285 men) (mean age: 28.5±8.5 years, mean BMI −24.2±4.1 kg/m2) were examined. The research was conducted within the framework of the republic action ‘optimization of approaches to improve the early diagnosis and prevention of diabetic polyneuropathy’. According to the criteria for inclusion in the research were examined patients with T1DM duration of disease is not more than 5 years (duration of DM: 3.3±1.6 years). During the campaign was carried out a survey in individuals who seek health care institutions of the Republic of Belarus, the analysis of the medical documentation and examination of patients with an estimate of the sensitivity stop using the device Vibratip.
Results: The most common clinical symptoms of DP were: pain – 69 (13.6%) patients, burning – 83 (16.3%), numbness – 134 (26.3%), feeling of pins and needles – 132 (25.9%), and feeling of electric shock – 25 (4.9%) in patients with T1DM. Sensory disturbances feet were found in 23.6% (120) of diabetic patients: 12.6% (64) women and 11% (56) males using Vibratip device.
Conclusions: The data confirmed the high incidence of violation of vibration sensitivity in patients with T1DM with disease duration of <5 years.
