The shoe insert for the treatment of the osteoarthritic knee was made on an experimental basis. Its result was good and reduction of pain was 74.3%. Moreover, the roentgenograms, the functional evaluation of the knee joint and grade of satisfaction in patient were employed as parameter, and the multiple regression analysis was performed using a computer, and then, the range of the indication was determined.—Our results showed that the medial joint space was a most important factor followed by the score of functional evaluation of the knee joint, and varus deformity was not an expectant factor.The indication of the shoe insert was concluded as follows.1. Width of medial joint space is over 2mm, 2. Score of functional evaluation of the knee is over 50 point, 3. OA change of knee joint is not severe.
