Product description

Siren Socks measure foot temperature to help reduce your risk of ulcers. Rising foot temperature indicates that inflammation is developing, which may be a sign of injury. This may help reduce the risk of diabetic foot ulcers and other foot complications. Licensed nurses review the data for signs of inflammation and call patients regularly to check on their health. Temperature monitoring has been shown to reduce diabetic foot ulcers by up to 87.5%.

How we use Siren Socks at VA

This product will be prescribed to Veterans who are at risk of developing diabetic foot ulcers and other foot problems that put them at risk for ulcers/amputation. The inserts will alert the monitoring team of hot spots that can lead to ulcers.
