Application of plantar pressure plates in medicine and sports

The plantar pressure plate is a high-precision device that uses the sensing principle of the pressure sensor to sense the pressure of various parts of the sole of the foot in real time and displays it in the form of a chart through software.

1. Application of plantar pressure plates in the medical field.

1. Through the plantar pressure distribution of the plantar pressure plate, it can effectively evaluate whether there are foot problems such as flat feet, high arches, inversion and valgus. It can be used in foot diagnosis in hospitals and children’s foot screening in schools.

2. Through the plantar pressure distribution test, data analysis is carried out to find abnormal gait conditions, such as abnormal step length, asymmetric gait, lameness, etc., which can assist in the diagnosis of neurological diseases, orthopedic lesions, etc.

3. According to the plantar pressure distribution data, personalized corrective insole design is carried out to help users effectively solve foot health problems, such as relieving pain problems of patients with diabetic foot, plantar fasciitis, and abnormal arches.

4. Through the plantar pressure distribution data, regular monitoring of plantar pressure can detect high-risk areas early, which plays an important role in preventing diabetic foot ulcers and infections.

5. Monitor the changes in plantar pressure after surgery to help doctors further adjust rehabilitation training programs.

2. Application of plantar pressure distribution system in sports.

1. According to the force on the soles of athletes when walking or running, optimize the gait of athletes, improve sports performance, and reduce energy consumption. Especially suitable for track and field, football, basketball and tennis.

2. Through the plantar pressure distribution, judge whether the sports area may cause plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonitis, knee joint injury and other problems due to uneven force under high-intensity training, and guide reasonable training plans to avoid these problems.

3. Research and development of special insoles and special shoes for athletes, through the analysis of plantar pressure distribution system data, optimize the sole structure, reasonably select shock-absorbing materials, and insole force distribution design, so that athletes can wear more comfortable and protective shoes and insoles.

Of course, the plantar pressure distribution data tested by the plantar pressure plate is not only used in the above fields, but also widely used in scientific research, shoe design, stores and other fields.
