The Patient’s Situation
A 55-year-old patient with diabetes presented at a clinic with recurring foot ulcers and neuropathy-related discomfort. Conventional footwear and insoles failed to prevent pressure sores or reduce pain.
The Bespoke Solution
The clinic partnered with Enertor Medical to provide bespoke orthotics tailored to the patient’s unique needs. These orthotics featured:
- Extra cushioning to offload pressure points and reduce ulcer risk
- Customised arch support to prevent instability
- Breathable materials to enhance comfort and hygiene
Results
Within six months, the patient experienced a significant reduction in ulcer recurrence and improved overall foot health. The bespoke orthotics allowed the patient to remain mobile, significantly enhancing their quality of life. Clinics offering diabetic foot care can achieve similar success with bespoke orthotics from Enertor Medical.
