Summary

This study aims to investigate the effects of custom-designed insoles produced using Computer Numerical Control (CNC) and 3D printers on plantar pressure distribution analysis, foot posture, plantar force distribution, foot pain, and satisfaction in patients diagnosed with pes planus.

Conditions

  • Pes Planus

Interventions

DEVICE

Custom made insoles

For the production of insoles using the CAD-CAM method; In the production of insoles, medial longitudinal arch support will be added so that the subtalar joints are in a neutral position, and additionally, transverse arch support between 3.5-5 mm, lateral longitudinal arch support between 4-6 mm, and finger-under supports to assist with palmar grip will be designed in three dimensions using the EasyCad modelling interface. Using a Vulcan Computer Numerical Control (CNC) milling machine, the insoles will be machined from Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA) material placed in blocks. After this process, the insoles will be adjusted on the milling machine to fit the patient's shoes.For the production of insoles using the 3D printing method, the Elegoo Neptune 4 Max 3D printer will be used. Using TPU material, medial longitudinal arch support will be added, along with transverse arch support between 3.5-5 mm, lateral longitudinal arch support between 4-6 mm, and finger support to aid palmar grip.
