| contents | Plantar pressure measurements can provide valuable insight into various health characteristics in patients. In this study, we describe different plantar pressure devices available on the market and their clinical relevance. Current devices are either platform-based or wearable and consist of a variety of sensor technologies: resistive, capacitive, piezoelectric, and optical. The measurements collected from any of these sensors can be utilized for a range of clinical applications including patients with diabetes, trauma, deformity and cerebral palsy, stroke, cervical myelopathy, ankle instability, sports injuries, and Parkinsons disease. However, the proper technology should be selected based on the clinical need and the type of tests being performed on the device. In this review we provide the reader with a simple overview of the existing technologies their advantages and disadvantages and provide application examples for each. Moreover, we suggest new areas in orthopaedic that plantar pressure mapping technology can be utilized for increased quality of care. |
