Comparative study of audiovisual reaction time in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and in normal subjects

Abstract: Background:Reaction time, which is a reliable indicator of attention and fine motor skills, was found to be slowed in diabetes mellitus. It is often overlooked and underestimated element in medical fitness test for professionals highly dependent on motor skills, such as drivers, pilots, and doctors. Many of them may be diabetic. Limited reports are available from India on the effect of type 2 diabetes mellitus on reaction time. Thus, this study was undertaken to determine the effect of type 2 diabetes mellitus… Show more

“…Our study findings were consistent with the earlier studies. 1,7,12,13 In our study we found that visual reaction time is longer than auditory reaction time. The reason for this is the fact that the visual reaction time involves chemical changes in its occurrence.…”

“…This can also lead to prolongation of whole-body reaction time. 12 According to previous studies, Reaction time is a measure of function of sensorimotor association 5 and Performance of an individual. 14 It has physiological significance and is a simple and non-invasive test for peripheral as well as central neural structures.…”

“…Esses aspectos geram impacto direto na qualidade de vida dos pacientes e a medida do TR é uma alternativa de baixo custo e fácil manuseio. Mungal et al (2015) sugerem, ainda, que medidas de TR audiovisual sejam incluídas no teste de aptidão para profissionais (como motoristas, pilotos e médicos), em vista da relevância de um TR ideal na tomada decisões instantâneas e de alto risco. Os estudos sequenciais de Meyr e Spiess (2017), Spiess et al (2017) e Sansoti et al (2017 observaram o comportamento do diabético tipo 2 no trânsito, principalmente quanto ao TF, e concluíram que apresentam um TF aumentado em relação à aqueles sem diabetes, mas entre portador de diabetes com e sem histórico de pé diabético não há uma diferença significante.…”

“…Os instrumentos mais utilizados foram aqueles disponíveis para aquisição no mercado e já utilizados em estudos anteriores. Os principais equipamentos comerciais foram PC 1000 Hz (Muhil, 2014), Anand Agencies Reaction Timer (Khode et al, 2015;Kour et al, 2019), M400 STISIM Drive Software (Ma et al, 2020), Stationary Simple Reaction Timer by Vericom Computers Sansosti et al, 2017;Spiess et al, 2017), Response Box by Eprime (Redondo et al, 2016), RTM 608 by Medicaid System (Mungal et al, 2015) e Slip-Falls plataform (Richerson et al, 2005). A vantagem observada no uso desses aparelhos comerciais foi o fato de serem validados e a maior confiabilidade interexaminador.…”
