Enhancing Motor Function in Chronic Diabetes: A Novel Approach with Conventional Exercises and a Diabetic Mat Intervention

Abstract

Introduction: The metabolic condition diabetes mellitus (DM) causes high blood glucose levels and chronic consequences such diabetic neuropathy. Diabetes neuropathy, which affects over half of diabetics, causes sensory and motor impairment and lowers quality of life. Traditional workouts have been used to treat these issues, but there is growing interest in new approaches such diabetic exercise mats. The study compares such a mat to standard activities for treating sensory and motor impairment in chronic diabetics.

Objectives: This study will compare diabetic exercise mat activities to traditional exercises for sensory and motor impairment in chronic diabetics. Designing the diabetic exercise mat, assessing the effects of conventional exercises on sensory dysfunction, and testing the mat's effects on motor dysfunction in this population are the goals.

Conclusion:After a thorough statistical analysis, presentation, and interpretation of the study's data, both traditional and mat-based exercises improved Manual Muscle Testing (MMT) and Quantitative Sensory Testing. This study strongly suggests that exercises on the specifically designed mat are more effective than those on a standard mat. Therefore, the alternative theory is supported.
