Diabetic foot biomechanics and gait dysfunction.
BACKGROUND Diabetic foot complications represent significant morbidity and precede most of the lower extremity amputations performed. Peripheral neuropathy is a frequent complication of diabetes shown to affect gait. Glycosylation of soft tissues can also affect gait. The purpose of this review article is to highlight the changes in gait for persons with diabetes and highlight the effects of gl...
متن کاملDynamic barefoot plantar pressure in gait and foot type biomechanics
Song et al demonstrated that healthy subjects with planus and neutral foot type exhibited a distinguishable foot posture and dynamic foot function [1]. However, such a relationship has not been demonstrated in a large sample study. Foot structure was categorized into one of three foot types (cavus, neutral, and planus) based on the standing arch height index (AHI) in 1,054 incoming cadets at th...
متن کاملA review of the theoretical unified approach to podiatric biomechanics in relation to foot orthoses therapy.
BACKGROUND Diverse theories of orthoses application have evolved with the continual development of podiatric biomechanics and orthotic management. This theoretical disparity can lead to confusion in clinical, educational, and research situations. However, although approaches are varied, the common consensus is that foot orthoses outcomes are generally positive. METHODS Three main podiatric th...
متن کاملThe Biomechanics of the Foot
These words of the old master of ortho paedics, Georg Hohmann, from his book "Fuss und Bein" are still applicable today. Thirty years later, the biomechanics of the foot have still not been completely explained, and there are many questions yet unanswered. The many, more or less articulated connec tions of the foot allow a variety of changes which make it difficult to understand the move men...
متن کاملFoot biomechanics- emerging paradigms
Too many times theories of how the human foot functions and therefore how mechanically inducted foot problems are treated have been presented as if they were facts. The dogmatic adherence that sometimes ensues from such an approach has frequently stifled the evolution of foot mechanics. This has been particularly apparent in the field of podiatry which has been dominated by the Root paradigm. B...
