How WITHINGS Body Scan and Nerve Health Score Empowers Diabetic Foot Prevention

Unraveling the Silent Risk: Peripheral Neuropathy and Diabetic Feet

Peripheral neuropathy is a condition that often creeps in silently but can have severe consequences for individuals, especially those at risk of Type 2 diabetes. One of the most alarming complications of unmanaged diabetes is diabetic foot, a condition caused by nerve damage leading to loss of sensation and potential injuries or infections going unnoticed. But what if you could take control and monitor this risk from the comfort of your home?



WITHINGS Body Scan and Nerve Health Score: A Game-Changer in Home Health Monitoring

WITHINGS Body Scan introduces a revolutionary technology that empowers individuals to monitor their peripheral nerve health reliably and accurately with Nerve Health Score. By integrating IMEPTO Sudoscan technology, Body Scan Nerve Health Score provides users with a medical-grade assessment of their peripheral neuropathy risk, offering an unprecedented tool for preventive health management.


Nerve Health Score how Does It Work?

The IMEPTO Sudoscan technology measures sweat gland activity in the feet and palms—a key indicator of nerve health. This data is then translated into a scoring system ranging between 1 and 100, with 50 being the threshold ("pass") and 100 indicating optimal nerve health. For individuals scoring below 50, it’s a red flag to begin proactive measures to prevent further nerve damage and reduce the risk of diabetic foot complications.


Why Peripheral Neuropathy Monitoring Matters for Diabetic Foot Prevention

Peripheral neuropathy is often asymptomatic in its early stages, making it difficult to detect without advanced diagnostic tools. With WITHINGS Body Scan, homeowners now have access to a powerful health monitoring device that not only tracks their weight and body composition but also assesses nerve health. This ensures that necessary lifestyle adjustments or medical interventions can be implemented before complications arise.



Empowering Prevention: What You Can Do with Your Data Knowing your nerve health score means you can take actionable steps to minimize risks. For example:

  • If your score is below 50: Consult a healthcare professional. You may need to adjust your diet, increase physical activity, or monitor blood sugar levels more closely.

  • If your score is above 50 but below 100: Continue practicing healthy habits and regularly monitor your score to ensure it remains stable or improves over time.

  • If your score is close to 100: Celebrate your nerve health while staying vigilant with routine monitoring.
