Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We fabricated a compact, thin weighing sensor device that can be easily attached to the footwear, and estimated the load applied to the foot in daily life. We also tried to clarify the gait where an excessive load occurs and the situation where the high load continues, and the load reduction method and prevention method. We showed the correlation between daily walking of healthy volunteers, in particular the pressure applied to the forefoot. Subsequently, we carried out unrestrained long-time measurement accumulation to find when and where, under what circumstances the large force occurs. Altogether, the method to estimate the force load of the sole forefoot force load was designed, and the validity and reliability were improved. Furthermore, the gait characteristics of diabetic patients were confirmed by simultaneous measurement of force load and leg / foot movement by the examination measurement of diabetic patients’ short distance daily walking.
