Abstract:
[Objective]To develop a mini-pressure-sensor(MPS)for measurement of plantar pressure(PP)and to evaluate its clinical application.[Method]The MPS was installed in the shoes,and computer was used to accumulate and analyze the change of PP in whole walking stage.Pathologic changes of PP in clinical patients were also analyzed by MPS.[Result]In normal walking,the PP of forefoot was 49% of body weight(BW)and of midfoot and heel was totally 51% of BW,but at pathologic state,the equilibrium of walking was dynamically disrapted inducing a pathologic changes of foot bearing.[Conclusion]Self-developed MPS for measuring PP is help for dynamic analysis of normal PP and is valuable to recognize the pathologic distribution of PP in pathological state and to provide a guide for treatment.
