Filter by:Chronic venous disease (CVD) are common vascular pathology characterized by a wide spectrum of clinical manifestations occurring with symptoms and/or signs that vary in type and severity. The pathophysiological mechanisms of CVD start from the development of venous hypertension, leading to endothelial dysfunction and venous wall dilatation. Lipedema is subcutaneous adipose tissue disorder characterized by enlargement of both lower extremities. Previous studies showed that foot deformities such as pes planus or cavus are at a high prevalence in CVD patients, and the authors indicated that foot disorders are an important risk factor that negatively affects venous disease. To the best of our knowledge, there is only one study investigating plantar arch abnormalities in lipedema patients based on clinical observation. Therefore, the study aimed to investigate plantar foot distribution and foot deformity in patients with CVD and lipedema.
This study is part of the Post-Market Clinical Follow-up process for the Calcanail medical device; the objective of which is to collect data on the safety and performance of the device after it has been placed on the market. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety of the device. The secondary objectives are to evaluate the clinical performance and safety of the device. This is a research not involving the human person: observational study, retrospective, monocentric, non-comparative and national. 84 patients will be included in the study.
Effect of systematic dexamethasone on the duration of popliteal nerve block after pediatric ankle/foot surgery
Adequate ankle dorsiflexion range of motion is important for normal performance of functional activities such as walking, running and climbing stairs. It is important to gain the ankle dorsiflexion range of motion, which affects the functional activities and sports associated with squats and lunges. Stretching and manual therapy are the most frequently used applications to gain range of motion. Manual therapy has been proposed as a possible treatment to improve mobility and restore arthrokinematics of joints. Movement mobilization, which is a manual therapy method, is an active joint mobilization concept. Talocrural mobilization with the movement technique is an extension of traditional joint mobilizations and allows the patient to engage in therapy in an active, partial weight-bearing lunge position. There are variations of this technique that can be applied by the clinician or by the individual himself. Our aim in this study is to compare the effects of movement and mobilization applications, which can be applied by the clinician or by the individual himself, on balance, gait, jumping and plantar pressure. Healthy asymptomatic individuals between the ages of 18-35 whose active ankle dorsiflexion range of motion as measured by the weight-bearing lunge test in the dominant extremity is below 45˚ will be included in the study. According to the inclusion criteria, the individuals to be included in the study will be randomly divided into three groups. Mobilization technique by the clinician will be applied to one group, and the mobilization technique by the individual himself will be applied to another group. The third group will be the control group. Evaluations will be made before and after mobilization applications. Balance will be evaluated with Y balance test, gait and jump will be evaluated with G-Walk, and plantar pressure will be evaluated with pedobarography device.
To Check the effects of the low dye taping technique versus the Robert Debre method on foot posture and range of motion in children with club feet.
Individuals with foot-ankle problems (plantar fasciitis, metarsalgia, pes planus, pes planovalgus/varus) will be included in the study. Permission was obtained from the research group that developed the scale to use the Original Foot Posture Index-6 (FPI-6). Cross-cultural adaptation of the FPI-6 will be made in line with the guidelines published by Ruberto and Beaton. First of all, the FPI-6 will be translated into Turkish by two translators whose native language is Turkish and who can speak English at an advanced level. Translations will be compared and discussed, and a Turkish version will be obtained with the equivalents that best represent each item in the texts. Secondly, this retranslated text will be independently translated back into English by two native English translators. In the third stage, two texts written in English will be synthesized by the authors, thus reaching a consensus on a single translation. Finally, the inconsistent parts of the text will be checked by a multidisciplinary team consisting of two native English-speaking translators, members of the English language and literature department, authors who developed the scale, and physiotherapists. Two independent physiotherapists will evaluate the participants' foot posture indexes by FPI-6 for inter-rater reliability. In addition, patients' quality of life, foot functions, hindfoot profiles will be evaluated. For the calculation of validity between measurements, rater-1 will apply the FPI-6 again to the same participants after 15 days for intra-rater reliability. Patients' functional independence, activities of daily living, and quality of life will also be evaluated for criterion validity. American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society-AOFAS, SF-36 and Foot Function Index questionnaires will be applied for the validity of FPI-6.
This prospective study aims to evaluate whether the implementation of a virtual reality hypnosedation (VRH)protocol reduces preoperative anxiety and increases patient comfort before, during, and after outpatient foot surgery.
The fact that changes in plantar pressure during walking and in a fixed position in morbidly obese individuals and the relationship between postural oscillations and balance have not been fully elucidated creates a need in this area. In this study, primary aim is to investigate the change in plantar foot pressure, balance parameters and the relationship between them in morbidly obese individuals compared to healthy individuals.
The main purpose of this study is to find out if scanning the foot using a 3D scanner influences the effectiveness of custom made insoles, compared to the more traditional approach of taking a foam-box impression cast of the foot. Both of these methods are currently used as standard care in the NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde (GGC) Orthotic Department. In this study, insoles will be manufactured either from a direct 3D scan of the foot, or from a foam-box impression cast, and a series of questionnaires will be used to measure any changes in foot pain and foot function. The results from this study will be used to develop an information resource for both patients and Orthotists which will fill gaps in our current knowledge and hopefully guide us further in providing the best possible care for future patients who require insoles.
The use of heel wedges is often recommended as a clinical routine in individuals with foot pronation. However, there is a lack of information for examining the immediate effect of supports used to restore foot biomechanics on balance. The aim of our study is to examine the immediate effect of calcaneal support in the frontal plane on static balance in individuals with increased pronated foot. In this study, the fore-hind foot load distribution in static bipedal stance will be examined in healthy young adults. Then, static balance measurements will be made on one leg with and without support (medial heel wedge). For the evaluation of static balance on one leg, x-y mean, ellipse surface, A-P index measurements and romberg test will be used. In addition, the pain of individuals will be questioned and their foot postures will be evaluated. Healthy young adult individuals with a subtalar angle of 5 degrees and above in the weighted position will be included in the evaluations. Evaluations of the participants are planned to take approximately 15 minutes.
