PLANTAR PRESSURES IN HEALTHY CHILDREN AND IN CHILDREN WITH MYELOMENINGOCELE [PDF]

The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1973
1. It has been shown in fifty normal feet that the perpendicular static plantar pressures rise by about 35 per cent between the ages of five years and maturity. 2. It is very likely that similar increases in plantar pressures occur between two and five years of age. 3.

Residual effects of combined vibratory and plantar stimulation while seated influences plantar pressure and spatiotemporal gait measures in individuals with Parkinson’s disease exhibiting freezing of gait

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience
IntroductionCombined plantar pressure and vibratory stimulation has been shown to decrease freezing of gait (FOG) episodes and improve spatiotemporal gait parameters compared to single stimulation in Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients with FOG.

Plantar Pressure Detection with Fiber Bragg Gratings Sensing System

Sensors, 2016
In this paper, a novel fiber-optic sensing system based on fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) to measure foot plantar pressure is proposed. This study first explores the Pedar-X insole foot pressure types of the adult-size chart and then defines six measurement
