| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) increases the risk of lower limb loss and leads to dependence on nursing care. It has been pointed out that it is important to correct the abnormal distribution of plantar pressure (PP) for DFU prevention, and the problem is being handled clinically by using footwear or insoles for off-loading. However, PP optimization has been insufficiently carried out.
In this study, we investigated a simple and quantitative evaluation method for abnormal PP distribution and indicated that plantar pressure optimization training resulted in a 28.0 - 60.5% reduction in the region of interest. To adapt this finding in the clinical treatment of DFU, it is necessary to consider the safety of patients with severe peripheral neuropathy or minor amputation history.
