National profile of foot orthotic provision in the United Kingdom, part 1: practitioners and scope of practice. (2017)
Journal Article

BACKGROUND: Foot orthoses have been advocated in the management of a wide range of clinical foot and lower limb problems and are within the scope of podiatry, orthotic and physiotherapy practice. Previous reports into the provision of orthoses have c... Read More about National profile of foot orthotic provision in the United Kingdom, part 1: practitioners and scope of practice..

Optimisation of rocker sole footwear for prevention of first plantar ulcer: comparison of group-optimised and individually-selected footwear designs. (2017)
Journal Article

BACKGROUND: Appropriate footwear for individuals with diabetes but no ulceration history could reduce the risk of first ulceration. However, individuals who deem themselves at low risk are unlikely to seek out bespoke footwear which is personalised....

Challenging the foundations of the clinical model of foot function: further evidence that the root model assessments fail to appropriately classify foot function. (2017)
Journal Article

BACKGROUND: The Root model of normal and abnormal foot function remains the basis for clinical foot orthotic practice globally. Our aim was to investigate the relationship between foot deformities and kinematic compensations that are the foundations...

The effect of intracortical bone pin application on kinetics and tibiocalcaneal kinematics of walking gait. (2017)
Journal Article

Bone anchored markers using intracortical bone pins are one of the few available methods for analyzing skeletal motion during human gait in-vivo without errors induced by soft tissue artifacts. However, bone anchored markers require local anesthesia... Read More about The effect of intracortical bone pin application on kinetics and tibiocalcaneal kinematics of walking gait..
