Perception of pressure on foot
نویسندگان
چکیده
This study attempted to identify the factors that affect the pressure pain threshold (PPT) on the heel region of the foot. Using dimensional analysis, it was found that probe area (A), indentation speed (V) and their interaction contribute towards PPT. A power form of these factors can be used to model PPT with an exponent of 0.63.

متن کاملComparing the Effect of New Silicone Foot Prosthesis and Conventional Foot Prosthesis on Plantar Pressure in Diabetic Patients With Transmetatarsal Amputation
Objective Diabetic foot ulcers are significant complications of diabetes that can lead to amputation. Partial foot prostheses can be used to redistribute the plantar pressure on the residual limb to alleviate local pressures and prevent re-amputation at more proximal levels. The current study aimed to describe the fabrication of an original silicone foot prosthesis designed for a diabetic patie...
