Protocol summary

Study aim
Determining the critical threshold of plantar pressure in people with diabetes with healed plantar ulcer in Tehran
Design
In the first phase, a group of 150 people was selected, and after determining the pressure threshold, in the second phase, 30 people were selected to make insoles, and in the third phase, after using the insoles, elastography was performed again.
Settings and conduct
This study is in 3 phases, in the first step, sampling with the available method and selecting 150 people and collecting information about plantar pressure using the Pedar device, in the second step, making medical insoles based on the offload of high pressure points, and in the last step, using the elastography technique, on 30 people before and after medical insole intervention.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Diabetic neuropathic patients of both sexes, aged between 30 and 80 years, with a history of ulcers in the toe area, which is at least 90 days from complete recovery and the ability to walk without assistance, and people with amputations in the lower limbs or ulcers in the soles of the feet and restrictions Mobility of lower limb joints and having Charcot arthropathy or peripheral vascular diseases and history of lower limb surgery are excluded from the study.
Intervention groups
Custom-made and offload at points where the pressure is high
Main outcome variables
Predicting points with high risk of ulcers, preventing recurrence of ulcers
