PodiVive aims to drastically decrease ulcer formation and infection by creating a novel solution for both diabetic and DFU patients. We are prototyping a personalized insole-sock combo that can properly offload a patient’s feet, offer easy compliance, assess a patient’s foot condition, and add a bacterial barrier for additive protection. These features can potentially preserve a diabetic patient’s limbs, increase their quality of life, and reduce the damaging effects of DFUs to both human health and the economy.
