Abstract
It was aimed to investigate the effect of custom made insoles on baropodometric analysis parameters in individuals with pes planus, using objective measurement and production methods. 100 individuals with pes planus, aged between 4-18 years in the study. Individuals who met the inclusion criteria and the medial longitudinal arch index were included in the study. Valgus angles of individuals, plantar measurements of the feet before the use of insoles and after 6 months of the use of insoles were evaluated with the Sensor Medica®️ device. When the measurement results of the ankle valgus angles of the individuals before and after the insoles were examined, it was observed that there was a statistical decrease in the mean results in both feet (p<0,05). When the plantar pressure results were examined, the load on the medial side of the right foot was reduced significantly (p=0,012). Although there was a decrease in medial longitudinal arch of the right foot, it was not significant. There were no change in the lateral side of the right foot and the medial side of the right rearfoot. The load on the medial left rearfoot and the left medial longitudinal arch were reduced significantly (p=0,004, p=0.021). In study in individuals with pes planus, it was concluded that the foot should be well evaluated before and after technological based applications. Whether the insoles used provide benefits in foot development should be followed up with controls and their suitability should be checked, and changes in their physical capacities should be observed.
