In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

This study is a proof-of-concept randomised controlled trial (RCT). The goal of the study is to investigate the effectiveness of a feedback intervention to improve use of the accelerator pedal in patients driving with diabetes and peripheral neuropathy (DPN). The main (primary) question it aims to answer is: What is the effect of a visual feedback intervention (over 6 sessions a month apart), compared to no feedback, on accelerator pedal use by drivers with diabetic peripheral neuropathy? Our working hypothesis is that the visual feedback intervention will reduce the % of drive time with the accelerator pedal pushed down further than 9 degrees (about halfway down), the point at which the visual feedback (a warning signal) is triggered. Secondary research questions are: 1. What is the effect of the feedback intervention on drivers with diabetic peripheral neuropathy at the first visi
