Plantar pressure equipment can measure plantar pressure distribution and gait.
It mainly uses the principle of sensors to sense plantar pressure distribution and gait data in various areas of the human foot in real time.
So, what is the use of measuring gait and plantar pressure?
1. It can evaluate whether there are foot abnormalities such as flat feet, high arches, inversion and eversion.
It can also assist in judging the early risks of diseases such as diabetic foot and plantar fasciitis based on data.
It can also screen systemic compensatory problems such as scoliosis and knee degenerative lesions through the measured gait cycle, step length, and speed.
These applications belong to disease diagnosis and health assessment.
2. Postoperative tracking effect.
Through gait detection, the gait data before and after surgery can be monitored and compared, so as to scientifically and quantitatively evaluate the postoperative rehabilitation effect.
Through these data, the rehabilitation training can be evaluated and optimized again to obtain better treatment effects.
3. In the field of sports, sports performance can be optimized.
By testing the sole data of athletes walking and running, abnormal sports postures can be found in time, so as to develop more scientific and reasonable sports postures to achieve the effect of improving sports performance.
Personalized sports shoes and insoles can also be customized for athletes to reduce injuries caused by sports and improve competitive level.
4. Batch screening of adolescents’ feet.
Foot health issues for adolescents are very important.
If the existing foot problems cannot be identified during the growth stage of adolescents, it is easy for foot diseases to be extended to adulthood, and the disease becomes more and more serious. Once they reach adulthood, the bones have been fixed, and it is more difficult to correct them.
Through gait analysis equipment for detection and screening, possible foot abnormalities can be found in time, which can truly achieve early detection and early treatment, and better protect children’s foot health.
