Peak pressures in the forefoot

We used a high frequency response, ultra-thin transducer to measure forefoot pressures at predetermined sites on the sole of the foot in 10 normal subjects. We demonstrated impact pressure peaks, which have not previously been identified, and which were separate from the roll-off peak. We report pre...

Zusammenfassung:	We used a high frequency response, ultra-thin transducer to measure forefoot pressures at predetermined sites on the sole of the foot in 10 normal subjects. We demonstrated impact pressure peaks, which have not previously been identified, and which were separate from the roll-off peak. We report preliminary results on the effect of various forms of footwear and insoles on sub-pedal pressure during walking.
