Summary

The purpose of this study is determine whether the use of plantar pressure measurements in the production of customized therapeutic footwear for patients with diabetes and a history of foot ulceration results in lower production costs and more pressure relief, compared to the standard production. A secondary objective is to explore if a difference in durability can be observed in pressure reduction and development of (pre-) ulcerative lesions between the shoes produced with and without plantar pressure measurements.
