Pressure distribution beneath the human foot

open access: yesJournal of the American Podiatric Medical Association, 1993
A descriptive study was undertaken to establish the 95 percentile limits (proposed normal reference range) for pressure beneath the hallux, metatarsal heads, and heel in a group of healthy adult subjects. A new force plate device capable of accurately measuring discrete areas of pressure beneath the human foot with high temporal and spatial resolution ...

A state-of-the-art review of foot pressure

Foot and Ankle Surgery, 2020
The science of foot pressure studies the forces acting on the bottom and different regions of the foot along with the pressure exerted on the plantar surface with the interacting surface in contact. The information derived gave impact to human biomechanical assessment on body balance and ergonomics posture during gait.

The Importance of Foot Pressure in Diabetes

open access: yes, 2016
Foot pressure assessment refers to the study of pressure fields acting between the plantar surface of the foot and a supporting surface using typically electronic sensors. Individuals with both type 1 and type 2 diabetes are at risk of developing diabetic peripheral neuropathy (loss of peripheral sensory and motor function), which predisposes them to ...

Foot deformities, function in the lower extremities, and plantar pressure in patients with diabetes at high risk to develop foot ulcers [PDF]

open access: yesDiabetic Foot & Ankle, 2015
Objective : Foot deformities, neuropathy, and dysfunction in the lower extremities are known risk factors that increase plantar peak pressure (PP) and, as a result, the risk of developing foot ulcers in patients with diabetes.

Pressures on the Foot in Pointe Shoes

Foot & Ankle, 1985
This study was designed to determine the relative pressures on the first and second toes and first MTP joint when dancing en pointe, in addition to the variation of these pressures as a function of toe length, foot position, and padding. The first ray always bore the most pressure.

Dynamic Pressures on the Diabetic Foot

Foot & Ankle International, 2001
A retrospective study was conducted in order to investigate the relation between increased plantar pressure and ulcers in the diabetic foot and contribute more information on this subject. Maximal plantar pressure (MPP) is reported on various areas of the plantar aspects of the feet in 328 diabetic patients and 75 healthy subjects.

The Measurement of Pressures under the Foot

Foot & Ankle, 1982
An apparatus is described which gives a rapid and detailed picture of the distribution of pressure under the foot, this being displayed either as a continuous grey scale or a color contour map on a television monitor. Automatic analysis systems are outlined which enable the quantitation of the distribution of pressures and loads under the foot during ...
