About this study

Official title: Investigation of the Effect of Custom Made Insoles on Foot Sole Pressure Distribution and Gait Parameters in Patients With Morton's Neuroma

The aim of our study is to investigate the effect of the use of custom made insoles in the treatment of Morton's neuroma on foot pressure, temporal and spatial gait parameters.

Conditions
Morton Neuroma
Being tested

Medical subject headings

What participants receive

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

  • Custom made orthosisOther

    In patients with Morton Neuroma, stride length, stance phase percentage, swing phase percentage, cadence and speed parameters, and fore, mid and hind foot pressure distribution will be recorded with the Zebris FDM-THM-S treadmill system in the analysis of barefoot walking after the physical examination evaluation of the cases.While the treadmil is in a static state, pressure distribution measurement will be taken by baropedography, and personalized insoles will be produced according to the baropedographic pressure map. Patients will be delivered to the patient for indoor and outdoor use for 4 weeks. After a 4-week usage period, measurements related to pressure and walking parameters will be repeated.

What is being measured

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

  1. Step length (centimeter- cm)

    Step length (cm) will be evaluated by Zebris (Zebris Medical Limited -, Germany) FDM (Force distribution measurement ) System. Participants will walk barefoot on the Zebris FDM (Zebris Medical Limited, Germany) treadmill system. Aim of the system analyzes gait of the patients. Step length describes the distance between the heel contact of one side of the body and the heel contact of the contralateral side.

    Measured: 4weeks

  2. Stance phase percentage (%)

    Stance phase percentage (%) will be evaluated by Zebris (Zebris Medical Limited -, Germany) FDM (Force distribution measurement ) System. Participants will walk barefoot on the Zebris FDM (Zebris Medical Limited, Germany) treadmill system. Stance phase percentage describes the phase of a gait cycle in which the foot has contact with the ground.The unit is expressed as a percentage.

    Measured: 4 weeks

  3. Swing phase percentage (%)

    Swing phase percentage (%) will be evaluated by Zebris (Zebris Medical Limited -, Germany) FDM (Force distribution measurement ) System. Participants will walk barefoot on the Zebris FDM (Zebris Medical Limited, Germany) treadmill system. Swing phase describes the phase of a gait cycle during which the foot has no contact with the ground. The unit is expressed as a percentage

    Measured: 4 weeks

  4. Cadance

    Cadence (steps/min) will be evaluated by Zebris (Zebris Medical -Limited -, Germany) FDM (Force distribution measurement ) System. Participants will walk barefoot on the Zebris FDM (Zebris Medical Limited, Germany) treadmill system. Cadence is steps/minute. It is defined as the step frequency.

    Measured: 4 weeks

  5. Velocity

    Velocity will be evaluated by Zebris (Zebris Medical -Limited -, Germany) FDM (Force distribution measurement ) System. Participants will walk barefoot on the Zebris FDM (Zebris Medical Limited, Germany) treadmill system. The system measures average gait speed during the analyzed measuring interval. The unit is expressed as km/hr.

    Measured: 4 weeks

  6. Foot pressure distiribution

    Foot pressure distiribution will be evaluated by Zebris (Zebris Medical -Limited -, Germany) FDM (Force distribution measurement ) System. Participants will walk barefoot on the Zebris FDM (Zebris Medical Limited, Germany) treadmill system. The system evaluate the average maximum values reached in N/cm² for the three zones: toes, mid-foot and heel.

    Measured: 4 weeks

  7. Pain - Visual Analogue Scale

    Visual Analogue Scale is one of the simple and common methods used in pain assessment. Self reported pain intensity during the rest and the activity measured by 0-10 centimeter chart. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), where 0 indicates no pain or best and 10 indicates the most intense pain imaginable or worst. The patient will mark the severity of the pain on a 10 cm long chart.

    Measured: 4 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Custom made orthosis in people with Morton Neuroma, run by Acibadem University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 4 inclusion and 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jun 2022. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Özlem Feyzioğlu, PhD (+902165004186 ext. 4186, ozlem.feyzioglu@acibadem.edu.tr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Step length (centimeter- cm) (time frame: 4weeks). The study lists 7 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 9 Jun 2022.
