Orthopaedic shoes are a useful tool for people with foot problems. However, some of these designs are not adaptable for every patient?s foot shape. Making this type of shoe in developing countries presents an additional challenge: the manufacturing materials and techniques used in these countries. In a previous thesis project at UMCG(1), M.A.T. (Merlijn) de Wolf developed a prototype to build an orthopaedic shoe to be produced in developing countries in collaboration with Beter ter Been. The scope of this project included the development of a prototype for the filling between the inner shoe and the outer shoe. The filling is used in order to provide a better fit according to the foot morphology of each patient The fundamental goal of this project is to develop a product or method of fabrication for the shoe (including the inner shoe casting between the foot and the filling, and the sole), taking into consideration the filling casting method proposed in Merlijn?s thesisand avoiding or removing harmful pressure points. After following the design methodology of the Biomedical Engineering Department at R UG(2), five different pre-concepts are proposed: taping, material removal from shoe, inserts, pads and modifications to the sole. In future research, measurements of the in-shoe plantar pressure for each of these concepts in one healthy participant will be performed, In order to test the difference in pressure between each design. If the difference in pressure can be determined, this may help in making a better decision of which pre-concepts to implement in the final design ofthe orthopaedic shoe.
