Effect of Walking Speeds on Complexity of Plantar Pressure Patterns

Complexity, 2021
Various walking speeds may induce different responses on the plantar pressure patterns. Current methods used to analyze plantar pressure patterns are linear and ignore nonlinear features. The purpose of this study was to analyze the complexity of plantar

Screening method based on walking plantar impulse for detecting musculoskeletal senescence and injury.

PLoS ONE, 2013
No consensus has been reached on how musculoskeletal system injuries or aging can be explained by a walking plantar impulse. We standardize the plantar impulse by defining a principal axis of plantar impulse. Based upon this standardized plantar impulse,

Clinical foot measurements as a proxy for plantar pressure testing in people with diabetes

Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, 2021
Background High plantar pressures are associated with increased foot ulcer risk in people with diabetes. Identification of high plantar pressures in people with diabetes is clinically challenging due to time and cost constraints of plantar pressure ...

Reduction of Plantar Pressure Using a Prototype Pressure-Relieving Dressing [PDF]

Diabetes Care, 2005
It is accepted that pressure relief is among the most important aspects in treating diabetic foot ulcers. Clinically, a variety of off-loading devices are used to redistribute pressure away from the area of ulceration to improve wound healing. The incorporation of pressure-relieving properties in a wound care dressing for the treatment foot ulcers is a

Effectiveness of insoles on plantar pressure redistribution

The Journal of Rehabilitation Research and Development, 2004
For this study, we compared the effectiveness of different design insoles for redistributing pressure during walking for diabetic patients and for normal control subjects. Comparisons of dynamic plantar foot pressure patterns were made with different support, including shoe-only, flat insole, and three contoured insoles.

Forefoot or rearfoot textured insoles influence postural sway and plantar pressure during quiet standing in community-dwelling older adults

Complementary Therapies in Medicine
Background: Plantar cutaneous sensation declines with age, leading to alterations in the plantar pressure distribution and increased postural instability in older adults.

An exploration of changes in plantar pressure distributions during walking with standalone and supported lateral wedge insole designs

Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, 2021
Background Lateral wedge insoles (LWI), standalone or with medial arch support (supported‐LWI), have been thoroughly investigated for their effects on modifying gait biomechanics for people with knee osteoarthritis. However, plantar pressure distribution
