Predicting Forefoot-Orthosis Interactions in Rheumatoid Arthritis Using Computational Modelling

Predicting Forefoot-Orthosis Interactions in Rheumatoid Arthritis Using Computational Modelling

Foot orthoses are prescribed to reduce forefoot plantar pressures and pain in people with rheumatoid arthritis. Computational modelling can assess how the orthoses affect internal tissue stresses, but previous studies have focused on a single healthy individual. This study aimed to ascertain whether...
