Our latest paper highlights that fixed plantar pressure thresholds (200/600 kPa) vary widely across devices and foot regions. Diabetic foot risk assessment should move beyond fixed cut-offs toward device-specific, multidimensional approaches. @NachiC

On this #WorldATDay, access matters as much as innovation.
Barriers to assistive technology exist everywhere; taxes, tariffs & system inefficiencies to gaps in training and care.
We must design for people’s needs, not system wants! #ATchangeslives @_ATscale @GATE_AT_World
