Official Title: The Effect of Dynamic Impression Insoles on Plantar Pressure and Pain in Persons With Metatarsal Pain
Brief Summary: The aim of the study was to investigate the effectiveness of dynamic impression insoles on plantar pressure and pain reduction. A dynamic impression insole was made by sequential padding with Plastazote and P-cell under daily walking compression. The pain levels and plantar pressure with the use of dynamic impression insole were assessed and compared with 7-mm Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA) control, 9-mm uncompressed Plastazote and custom molded insoles. Plantar pressure was measured by a Pedar-X mobile system, and pain level was assessed using a Visual Analog Scales.
