1 Predicting & Preventing Diabetic Ulcerations Utilizing Computerized Pressure Gait Analysis Jeffrey A. Ross, DPM, MD, FACFAS, FAPWCA Associate Clinical Professor Baylor College of Medicine Houston, Texas NCVH Meeting 2015 New Orleans
2 Introduction It has been demonstrated in clinical practice and the literature that diabetics are prone to dermal ulcerations. It is believed that a foot deformity with elevated plantar pressures plays a significant role in the relationship between foot deformity and plantar injury.
3 Introduction There are a number of risk factors for the development of diabetic ulceration in diabetics. For example, peripheral neuropathy, peripheral vascular disease, limited joint mobility, and high plantar pressure and abnormal pressure can act as precursors to the formation of diabetic pressure ulcers. 1,3,5.
4 Introduction Predicting the location of these potential diabetic ulcerations can have important implications in the prevention of their formation, and potential complications.
5 Introduction Peak plantar pressure (PPP) has been used as a measure of trauma to the plantar aspect of the foot, and one of the contributing factors in the development of skin breakdown in individuals with diabetes and diabetic peripheral neuropathy. The level of pressure, repetitive pressure as well as the duration are mechanical factors that also contribute to skin breakdown. 6.
6 Introduction Contact pressure on the plantar aspect of the foot generates forces in the subsurface tissue, and causes it to deform. The breakdown develops when the contact pressure load leads to a permanent distortion of the tissue and to the formation of localized tissue damage. 10.
7 Purpose The purpose of this presentation is demonstrate the use of a mat pressure system as a predictor for increased plantar pressure areas and potential risk sites for ulceration in the diabetic foot. Utilizing a computerized gait and pressure analysis mat system as a preventative tool and for prescribing proper diabetic shoe gear and insole/orthotics can be advantageous for the foot or diabetic specialist.
8 Materials and Methods Several systems for measuring plantar pressure in the foot are currently available. Among those are the E-med, Pedobarographs, F-Scan/Mat-Scan*, and Piezoelectric insoles. For this clinical study, the Mat-Scan* was utilized to perform pressure analysis of the foot. Pressure sensors within the mat can detect increased foot pressure and whether this pressure is evenly distributed, or concentrated in certain anatomical areas of the foot.
9 Terms Related to Pathomechanics Pathomechanics is a term associating pathologies that affect and perturb the normal mechanical/physical function of an organ, segment or joint. Pathomechanics related to foot function and gait can be defined in 2 major categories: Physiological related disorders. Biomechanical related disorders.
10 Terms Related to Pathomechanics Examples of physiological related disorders include: Pressure sores, skin breakdown and/or ulcers such as in patients having diabetes and/or neuropathy. Examples of biomechanical related disorders include: Physical dysfunctions of the segments and/or joints with related soreness and/or pain in the muscles, tendons, ligaments and/or bones.
11 Parameters to Analyze Physiological Related Disorders Parameters to analyze physiological related disorders include: Peak Pressure within the area of concern (pressure sore, ulcer), Maximum (average) Pressure under the area of concern (pressure sore, ulcer), and Integral (Pressure-Time relationship) under the area of concern (pressure sore, ulcer).
12 What is Pressure? It represents the force applied uniformly and perpendicular onto a surface. It is also referred to as a measure of force exerted per unit area.
13 What is Integral? Integral refers to the relation between the amount of pressure and the amount of time that the pressure is acting, in effect or applied. It is also referred to as the capacity of work (loading impact).
14 Assess for Reduction in Peak Pressure within the Area of Concern Before treatment Peak Pressure (black box) = 61 PSI After treatment Peak Pressure (black box) = 42 PSI This confirms a positive reduction in the Peak Pressure within the ulcer.
15 Assess for Reduction in the Integral (Pressure- Time relationship) Under the Area of Concern Before treatment Integral (green box) = 26.6 PSI*sec After treatment Integral (red box) = 9.9 PSI*sec This confirms a positive reduction in the Integral (Pressure-Time relationship) under the ulcer area.

21 Screening Results
22 Risk Factors for Diabetic Foot Ulceration-Intrinsic Peripheral sensory neuropathy Sensorimotor Autonomic Previous ulceration/amputation Poor gylcemic control Duration of diabetes Vascular diasease Macrovascular Microvascular Immunopathy/susceptibility to infection Structural foot deformity Biomechanical dysfunction Limited joint mobility Advanced age Blindness/partial sight Callus
23 Predicting Plantar Pressure CharM01.No Orthotic. Patient is experiencing pain and ulceration under his 2nd MT on the left foot(56.8 PSI).Graphs on Force vs. Time curves (red-left foot/ green-right foot) indicate non symmetrical heal strike vs. forefoot left (red curve) and non-symmetrical left vs. right force curves. The blue curve under the left fore foot illustrates an increase in force/time on that foot during propulsive phase of gait. The yellow and blue curves intersect early in the foot strike. The foot moves early into the active propulsive phase. The result is high peak pressure.
24 Symmetry of Pressure
25 Symmetry of Pressure CharM01. TAM pinpoints gait asymmetries by phase.active Propulsive at 8%of gait. It should be between 19-21% of gait. Peak Pressure 2nd MT Left at 57 PSI. This is the cause of the ulceration and MT pain. Hallux well below average % stance. The resolution of the sensor allows the clinician to accurately place the boxes under the MT sites.
26 Symmetry of Pressure
27 Prevention and Screening Barefoot Screenings with computerized mat provide helpful data for assessment and treatment. Parameters for analysis include: Peak Pressures Timing Center of Force Trajectory Contact Area

38 Conclusions New technology has allowed the practitioner to utilize a computerized mat pressure sensitive apparatus. As a screening device for diabetic neuropathic feet, this scan can determine where the high pressure areas hot spots of the feet are located. In the case presentations, specific areas of peak plantar pressure were determined, with subsequent shoe and accommodative insole intervention to reduce plantar pressure and prevent ulceration or recurrence.
39 Off-load: Orthotic Prescription Based on the MatScan data we just reviewed, the desired treatment outcome is to reduce the amount and time of loading at the forefoot (especially under the ulcer), and to support the medial arch by redistributing pressure to the midfoot area and help off-load the forefoot.
