We will introduce how to evaluate the effectiveness of a supporter used on the toes, including "balance ability" and "muscle load," and what measurement items should be used for this evaluation.
■Evaluation Subject Various shapes of supports to be worn on the toes (see attached materials) ■Evaluation Items and Methods (1) Subjective Evaluation - Ease of walking - Physical burden - Impact on walking style (stability, instability, body sway, etc.) (2) Personal Characteristics - Foot dimensions (see basic information) (3) Muscle Load - Measurement of muscle load at seven locations, including the erector spinae (for details, please refer to basic information) (4) Static and Dynamic Balance - Measurement of how much stability the body gains from wearing the toe support (static balance) and how far the lifted foot can extend while standing on one leg (dynamic balance). For details, please refer to basic information and attached materials. (5) Plantar Pressure Distribution - Measurement of where pressure is applied on the sole of the foot. For details, please refer to attached materials. (6) Gait - Our product (Anakin System) will be used. Measurements will include walking speed, stride length, body tilt, and movements of the hands and knee joints. 【Expected Outcomes】 - It will be possible to understand the specific effects that various shapes of supports have on individuals.

basic information
【Foot Measurements】 - Minimum foot width, short heel circumference, heel circumference, instep circumference, foot circumference, foot height, first toe height - Maximum foot width 【Static and Dynamic Balance】 ■Static Balance: The center of gravity's trajectory is measured using a center of gravity sway meter, and static balance strength is evaluated based on the length and area enclosed (please refer to the attached materials for specifics). ■Dynamic Balance: Evaluated using the Star Excursion Balance Test*. Specifically, while bending the knee and balancing on one foot, the lifted foot is extended as far as possible forward, backward, and sideways to touch the floor. The distance achieved is considered the dynamic balance strength. For more details, please refer to the attached materials.
