Effect of Custom Dynamic Orthoses on Forefoot Loading

Recruiting now · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Lower Extremity Injuries

In brief

The proposed study is designed to evaluate how foot loading changes during initial accommodation to a carbon fiber custom dynamic orthosis (CDO), after targeted training with or without visual feedback of foot loading, and after take-home use of the CDO. This study will quantify initial offloading associated with CDO use and determine if visual feedback of foot loading and additional take-home use of the CDO can further reduce forces, as orthotists work to provide CDOs to patients.
