NCT ID: NCT04784598 Completed - Heel Pain Syndrome Clinical Trials

Insoles Adapted in Flip-flop Sandals in People With Heel Pain

Heelpain
Start date: May 16, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Introduction: Persistent hindfoot pains are very common and prevalent complaints in the Brazilian population. One of the treatments recommended for these conditions in the literature is the use of insoles. However, to use this resource it is necessary that the individual wear closed shoes and this is an obstacle to treatment in cities with hot climate. Thinking about an alternative treatment, the customized slippers with the corrective elements of the insoles can be an alternative to increase adherence to this type of treatment. Objective: To compare different types of hindfoot elements in insoles adapted in slippers in individuals with persistent hindfoot pain.

NCT ID: NCT04380285 Completed - Heel Pain Syndrome Clinical Trials

Treating Heel Pain in Adults: A Randomized Clinical Trial of Hard Versus Soft Orthotics

Start date: January 2003
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Objectives: This study compared the effectiveness of soft versus hard orthotics in treating heel pain and plantar fasciitis in adults. It also compared the level of function after orthotic use, cost and number of visits for orthotics and explored if age was a factor in orthotic effectiveness.

NCT ID: NCT04378270 Completed - Heel Pain Syndrome Clinical Trials

Validation of a Novel Foot Offloading Device

PopSole2
Start date: August 26, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Pressure offloading is often considered the most crucial aspect in healing after a foot injury. The investigators have devised a novel foot offloading device (PopSoleā„¢) which will allow for customization of the area where there is foot pain, as well as allow for customizable arch support and elevation of the metatarsals. This validation study is aimed to assess improvement of pain with use, ease of use, fit and feel, compliance, and durability over a 4 week period. Validated patient reported outcome measures will be used at baseline, 2 weeks and 4 weeks.

NCT ID: NCT04060576 Completed - Heel Pain Syndrome Clinical Trials

Post-needling Soreness After Internal Gastrocnemius Muscle Treatment

Start date: September 8, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Mechanical hyperalgesia areas, also known as myofascial trigger points, are treated by manual therapy or invasive technics. Dry needling achieves an improvement of the symptomatology in 70% of the subjects, being the acute patients the most benefited. However, bruising, bleeding, pain during treatment or post-needling soreness. Plantar fasciitis is the most common cause of interior heel pain, affects approximately 10% of the general population and is one of the most benefited pathologies in the long term by the application of dry needling The gauge of the needle chosen for the treatment can influence post-needling soreness intensity and pressure pain threshold. Objective To evaluate the relation between post-needling soreness intensity and needle diameter on the treatment of the most hyperalgesic point of the internal gastrocnemius. Hypothesis Post-needling soreness intensity and pressure pain threshold depend on needle diameter applied in the treatment of the most hyperalgesic point of the internal gastrocnemius.

NCT ID: NCT03482518 Completed - Metatarsalgia Clinical Trials

Effectiveness of Postural Insoles Adapted in Slippers for People With Persistent Heel Pain

Start date: April 17, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Introduction: Persistent heel pain from plantar fasciitis and calcaneal spurs, as well as metatarsalgia, are very common and prevalent complaints in the Brazilian population. One of the recommended treatments for these conditions in the literature is the use of insoles. However, the use of this feature requires the individual to wear closed shoes and this is an obstacle to treatment in cities with hot weather. Thinking about an alternative treatment, the customized slippers with the corrective elements of the insoles can be an alternative to increase the adhesion to this type of treatment. Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of the insoles adapted in slippers in the improvement of the pain and the function in individuals with persistent pains in the backfoot of the city of Santa Cruz, RN. Methodology: This is a double-blind, randomized, controlled clinical study in which 66 patients diagnosed with persistent back pain and metatarsalgias will be divided into two groups. The intervention group will receive a customized slipper with foot pieces and synthetic leather cover, and the control group will receive a slipper without customization, only with a synthetic leather cover as used by the intervention group. The evaluator and the patient will be considered blind. Evaluations will be performed at baseline (T0), after 12 weeks of wearing the slippers (T12) and a reassessment at week 16 (T16) for pain monitoring. The evaluation instruments used will be the EVA (visual pain scale) and the algometer in the painful region of the foot; FFI - Foot Function Index questionnaire and FAAM questionnaire - Foot and Ankle Ability Measure for functional evaluation, and finally the 6 - minute walking test for walking performance. Statistical analysis: Data will be analyzed by t-test, Mann-Whitney test, repeated-measures ANOVA and intention-to-treat analysis.

NCT ID: NCT01355640 Completed - Heel Pain Syndrome Clinical Trials

Two Methods of Analgesia for Chinese Term Infants Receiving Heel Lance

Start date: April 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

1. The purpose of this study is to research and compare two sucking modes' effect(breast-feeding and non-nutritive sucking) and difference,hypothesis is that these two kinds of methods can decrease pain for Chinese term infants receiving heel stick. 2. A convenient sample of 90 neonates from a hospital in Beijing undergoing heel stick for Newborn Screening Program Blood Test were enrolled. They were randomized into three groups: - breast-feeding group - non-nutritive sucking group - control group 3. The results showed that: - Breast-feeding can reduce crying and grimace time, increase oxygen saturation. - Non-nutritive sucking can delay grimace's starting time, increase oxygen saturation.
