PLANTAR PRESSURES AND TROPHIC ULCERATION

open access: yes, 1963
1. With the object of perfecting the design of footwear for feet anaesthetic from leprosy, pressures on the soles of feet during walking were measured with transducers sufficiently thin to be worn inside ordinary shoes. 2. It was found that anaesthetic
