Investigation of Plantar Pressure Distribution in Overweight and Obese Individuals

, 2020
Objective:The increase in the incidence and prevalence of orthopaedic foot diseases may be related to changes in the plantar pressure distribution in overweight/obese individuals. Therefore, the purpose of the present study was to investigate the plantar

A 120-second stretch improves postural control and plantar pressure: quasi-experimental study

, 2022
BACKGROUND: There are no studies on long-term bilateral calf stretching in relation to balance and plantar pressure. OBJECTIVES: To demonstrate that there is better control of posture and pressures after continuous stretching of the posterior calf ...

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,

Reliability of OHM 3000 Plantar Pressure System for Measurement of Plantar Pressures in Healthy Indian Population [PDF]

International Journal of Physiotherapy and Research, 2022
Purpose: The aim of this study is to determine intra and inter-session repeatability and reliability of OHM 3000 for reporting static and dynamic pressures in healthy Indian population. Methods: Using OHM 3000, twenty-eight healthy adults who did not present any gait abnormalities or musculoskeletal conditions were assessed one week apart for static ...

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 the Fixtoe Device® in plantar pressure reduction: a preliminary study

, 2022
BACKGROUND: Metatarsalgia is a common foot condition. The metatarsophalangeal stabilizing taping technique described by Yu et al. has shown good clinical results as a provisional treatment in propulsive metatarsalgia.

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

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.

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.
