Date Time Southampton sensing technology steps forward to prevent diabetic foot ulcers Innovative in-sole sensors will alert diabetic patients during excessive or extended activities that could trigger foot ulcers in a new system being developed at the University of Southampton. The LOad Monitoring and Intervention System (LOMIS) processes real-time data from three directional force sensors and detects physical activities over extended periods of time in a five-metric dimensional risk model. Live risk alerts are communicated to patients through a connected App to mitigate the risk and dangers of ulceration and amputation. A LOMIS prototype has been tested in pilot studies and around £1 million of new funding from the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) will now prepare the technology for clinical trials and adoption within the NHS.
