Reliability quantification and gait loading asymmetry assessment with wearable insoles in transfemoral amputee people at different speeds [PDF]

, 2016
Introduction Amputee people have gait defaults, as for example loading asymmetry, which increase with daily living situations. Replication of realistic daily living environment in a motion analysis laboratory (MAL) is difficult. Wearable pressure insoles,

Effects of age, body height, body weight, body mass index and handgrip strength on the trajectory of the plantar pressure stance-phase curve of the gait cycle

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
The analysis of gait patterns and plantar pressure distributions via insoles is increasingly used to monitor patients and treatment progress, such as recovery after surgeries.

Water absorption and dimensional stability of shoe insoles [PDF]

, 2023
The aim of this research was to study water absorption and dimensional stability of shoe insoles. The dimensional stability was indicated by swelling, increase in size of the sample, and shrinkage.

Validating Scanned Foot Images and Designing Customized Insoles on the Cloud [PDF]

, 2016
People with foot problems need special healthcare: foot care. Customized insoles can provide this care. They are inserts that are placed in the shoes. They correct biomechanical and postural inaccuracies in foot.

Virtually optimized insoles for offloading the diabetic foot: a randomized crossover study [PDF]

, 2017
Integration of objective biomechanical measures of foot function into the design process for insoles has been shown to provide enhanced plantar tissue protection for individuals at-risk of plantar ulceration.

Thermal Differences in the Plantar Surface Skin of the Foot after Using Three Different Lining Materials for Plantar Orthotics

Life, 2023
The lining materials of plantar orthoses are chosen for their hardness, breathability, and moisture absorption, but without there being any clear scientific criterion.

Reactive fungal insoles

, 2022
Abstract Mycelium bound composites are promising materials for a diverse range of applications including wearables and building elements. Their functionality surpasses some of the capabilities of traditionally passive materials, such as synthetic fibres, reconstituted cellulose fibres and natural fibres.

RTV silicone insoles [PDF]

Prosthetics & Orthotics International, 1984
A cheap and fast method of providing long term accommodating insoles is described. Room temperature vulcanizing (RTV) silicone rubber is used, with suitable coverings, to provide pain relief and support for feet and ankles. The combination of physical properties of the finished item provides a useful balance between support and flexibility which ...
