A device for evaluating diabetic peripheral neuropathy is provided with: a footrest (2) a probe (4) which applies a moving stimulus to the sole of a foot and a probe drive structure (3) which is provided on a base (1) and performs an operation for moving the probe (4) individually in directions orthogonal to each other along the sole of the foot. The device is further provided with: an input switch (5) which is operated by a subject that has perceived the moving stimulus a drive control unit (51) which controls the drive state of the probe drive structure (3) and a main control unit (B) which evaluates a measured sensation threshold. In the main control unit (B), reference data relating to known sensation thresholds when the moving stimulus is applied to the soles of feet of a group of patients, and age correction factors calculated from sensation threshold standard values based on differences in the ages of the patients are previously stored. The drive control unit (51) controls the drive state of the probe drive structure (3) using the reference data and the age correction factor to execute a primary stimulus application state, and further sequentially execute a secondary stimulus application state and a tertiary stimulus application state, and measures sensation thresholds.Linvention concerne un dispositif pour évaluer la neuropathie périphérique diabétique qui comprend : un repose-pieds (2) une sonde (4) qui applique un stimulus de déplacement à la plante dun pied et une structure de commande de la sonde (3) qui est fournie sur une base (1) et accomplit une action pour déplacer la sonde (4) individuellement dans des directions orthogonales les unes aux autres le long de la plante du pied. Le dispositif est en plus équipé de : un interrupteur dentrée (5) qui est actionné par un sujet qui a perçu le stimulus de déplacement une unité de contrôle de commande (51) qui contrôle létat de commande de la structure de commande de la sonde (3) et une unité de contrôle pr
