.@DiabetesUK .@ChrisAskewCE If you truly want to help people with diabetes avoid foot ulcers and amputations, as you regularly state, you should lobby @NICEcomms to get @neuropadtest guidance corrected and get NG19 updated to include it. How else can HCPs risk stratify patients?

[Tenminutetest @neuropadtest]

Dear .@Diabetes_ie . We understand that diabetes related foot problems are are key target for your HSE. We believe that we can help with our #tenminutetest @neuropadtest Here is a movie that helps explains. FYI @neuropadtest is manufactured for us in Germany.

Our .@neuropadtest can't tell how old your feet are but they can estimate your risk of a diabetes-related foot ulcer thanks to a new outcome study that's in press. https://t.co/hBDtlnYEBM

@DiabetesUK @BBCLondonNews @diabetes_dan There is a #tenminutetest that is FREE and already on prescription that screens for early signs of peripheral neuropathy before protective sensation is lost? Ask your GP. (link: https://t.co/e64pTNO6z1) https://t.co/X6YTOjMnJT… …

[Tenminutetest @neuropadtest]

@DomLittlewood We have a unique, simple #tenminutetest for the early detection of diabetic foot disease. It's on prescription and so free to people with diabetes but not enough people know about it to ask for it. Thanks. https://t.co/DRkgr7HIzB

[Bilberry Bloom @bilberrybloom]

@neuropadtest @DiabetesUK Yes, why aren't you Diabetes UK? Your own research cites 25,527 amputations during the period 2013-2016, a record high. This 10 minute test is also on the NHS tariff - Ask your GP.

[Bilberry Bloom @bilberrybloom]

@DiabetesUK It's a shame that Diabetes UK doesn't also support more technologies such as early foot screening tests @neuropad, helping to save 25,527 amputations during the period 2013-2016, a record high. This 10 minute test is also on the NHS tariff - Ask your GP.

Which way up for this one left or right?

[Tenminutetest @neuropadtest]

Avoid developing sensory neuropathy by taking our #tenminutetest which is on prescription and therefore available free to all people with diabetes. Just ask your GP for .@neuropadtest #futureofdiabetes

[Tenminutetest @neuropadtest]

@DiabetesUK .@diabetesuk We really like history but the 1980s was rather a long time ago and there are now 169 amputations a week in England which is yet another annual increase. This was a scandal in 2012 it and remains one. Poor screening is the culprit. #futureofdiabetes #tenminutetest

[Bilberry Bloom @bilberrybloom]

@DiabetesUK A record number of people undergoing amputations because of diabetes. https://t.co/Wo1NIxSo3a
Interesting to note that the research focused on 'improving' lives and to 'treat' foot complications, why not spend more money on early screening programmes to improve lives?
