Analysis of Pressure Patterns of the Foot Palm and Heel Areas of Young Women Based on Footscan
Objective To summarize the pressure patterns of young women's foot palms and heels.Methods The Footscan plantar pressure gait analysis system was used to record the distribution of plantar pressure under normal walking conditions.Sixty young women with normal feet and good physical condition were randomly selected as the subjects of this experiment.The height,weight,age and origin information of the subjects were recorded respectively.SPSS 21.0 software was used to analyze the plantar pressure parameters in the toe,metatarsal,arch and heel area of different subjects,and the variance data was obtained.Results Under normal conditions,most of the plantar pressure areas of the left and right feet showed good correspondence.For toe area,the peak pressure,effective contact area and impulse of the first toe area were greater than those of the second to fifth toe area,and the right foot was almost greater than the left foot.For metatarsal area,the peak pressure and impulse were the largest in the third metatarsal area and were the smallest in the fifth metatarsal area.The effective contact area of plantar pressure in the first plantar area was the largest.For heel area,the peak pressure and effective contact area inside the heel area were greater than the outside of the heel area.The impulse outside the heel area of the left foot was greater than the inside of the heel area,and the impulse inside the heel area of the right foot was greater than the outside of the heel area.Conclusion The regularity of the pressure patterns of the foot palm and heel area of young women is significant.The results of this study improve the recognition of the biomechanical characteristics of young women's feet and supplement the theoretical basis in related forensic appraisal.
