Over the last 30 days we asked 5 diabetic patients to participate in a case study using Podoexpert with urea. Podoexpert is a nourishing foam cream for cracked and dry skin. It works by repairing and hydrating the protective skin layer on your feet and ankles.
Patients used the foam twice daily. We took pictures at the first visit prior to treatment, after 2 weeks and 30 days using the medication to document their progress.
Patients are happy to try new products
New habits take about one month
Being part of the study held patients accountable and were more consistent with using the product
Patients and staff were more engaged.
Documenting the process and participating was fun.
The feedback was positive and patients stated they will continue to use the product even after completing the study.
