Biomechanical Properties of the Foot Sole in Diabetic Mellitus Patients: A Preliminary Study to Understand Ulcer Formation

This aricle evaluates and quantifies the biomechanical properties of the foot sole like – loss of protective sensation, hardness of the foot sole and pressure distribution parameter called Power ratio (PR) and its alterations, which have a direct effect on ulcer formation. A new parameter PRS Index...
