Study Summary
Foot orthotics or shoe inserts are currently utilized as a common conservative treatment option for a wide variety of foot disorders. This treatment is used for both the relatively healthy active population and the more sedentary population with diabetes or peripheral vascular disease (dysvascular). However, there is limited objective scientific data documenting the actual benefits or effectiveness of either customized or over-the-counter foot orthoses. It is the aim of this study to determine the effects of three popular foot orthotics on plantar pressures in diabetic populations. If foot orthoses can be utilized as a preventive treatment option to reduce the risk for foot ulceration by redistributing plantar pressures, then orthoses would be a cost effective solution to a high cost (mental and fiscal) medical impairment.
