About this study

Official title: Standing Plantar Pressure Changes After Plantar Dry Needling in Flexor Digitorum Brevis

The aim of this clinical trial is to check the effects of dry needling in the Flexor digitorum Brevis.

Twenty healthy subjects wil be recruited for a quasi-experimental study. Participants will be from 18 to 40 years old, not obese. Participants will be measured before and after bilateral dry neddling in Flexor digitorum Brevis. The investigators will measure static footprint variables. The footprint variables will be divided in bilateral rear foot, bilateral midfoot, bilateral fore foot.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Static footprintOther

    The static footprint will measure the plantar pressures and surface area of the back of the foot, midfoot and forefoot. Subjects were instructed to stand barefoot on the force platform, participants were instructed to remain in a relaxed standing posture with feet shoulder-width apart and positioned 30 degrees from the midline.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Variables of plantar pressures with platform before dry puncture

    During 30 seconds we will record the plantar pressure variables in grams per square centimeter.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 week

  2. Variable footprint plantar surface with platform before dry puncture

    For 30 seconds we will record the area of the footprint in square centimeters.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 week

  3. Variables of plantar pressures with platform after dry puncture

    During 30 seconds we will record the plantar pressure variables in grams per square centimeter.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 week

  4. Variable footprint plantar surface with platform after dry puncture

    For 30 seconds we will record the area of the footprint in square centimeters.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 week

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Static footprint in people with Myofascial Pain Syndrome and Foot Diseases, run by Mayuben Private Clinic at 1 site in Spain.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Dec 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Spain. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Variables of plantar pressures with platform before dry puncture (time frame: Through study completion, an average of 1 week). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 3 Dec 2020.
