| Popis: | Background To avoid abnormal foot local loading while maintaining a physiological foot biomechanics does represent a challenge in the management of Diabetic foot and a valuable instrument to counter the onset of the ulceration process. The authors hypothesized that silicone socks may help in keeping dynamic peak pressures below risky values. The study describes the methodology the authors used to assess the effectiveness of the socks prior to the launch of the clinical application on Diabetic patients. |
