Custom CAD/CAM Insoles for Plantar Pressure Improvement in Foot Deformities
Sponsor: Fenerbahce University
Summary
This randomized controlled trial will investigate the effects of custom CAD/CAM insoles on plantar pressure distribution and gait parameters in individuals with foot deformities, such as pes planus, pes cavus, and hallux valgus. A total of 30 participants will be randomly assigned to either the intervention group, receiving custom CAD/CAM insoles, or the control group, receiving no insole intervention. Plantar pressure measurements will be performed using the As200 Gait Scan Pedobarography System at baseline and after eight weeks. Static and dynamic plantar pressure variables, contact area, and center of pressure displacement will be assessed, along with gait parameters including step length, step time, and walking speed. The results of this study may contribute to the development of effective conservative treatment strategies to improve foot biomechanics and reduce pressure-related complications in individuals with foot deformities.

Interventions
Custom CAD/CAM Insoles
Custom insoles will be designed using 3D plantar scanning and pedobarographic analysis, produced with CAD/CAM technology. The insoles will be fitted into participants' regular footwear and worn daily for eight consecutive weeks. The design aims to optimize plantar pressure distribution and improve foot biomechanics in individuals with foot deformities.
