Association between Toe Pressure Strength in the Standing Position and Maximum Walking Speed in Older Adults [PDF]

Annals of Geriatric Medicine and Research, 2023
Background Considering concerns about conventional toe grip strength, we devised a method to measure toe pressure strength in the standing position, which is close to the actual motion. This study examined the association between toe pressure strength in

The “Toe Walking Tool”: a novel method of assessing toe walking children [PDF]

Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, 2011
Background Idiopathic toe walking (ITW) can present in children above the age of three, and occurs in the absence of any medically diagnosed conditions. Identification of medical conditions that are associated with toe walking can be complex and a potentially daunting task for those that infrequently assess children.
