Abstract

Background Preceding studies reported that differences in pressure distribution according to shoe type [1] and there were many comparative analyses of motor mechanics between travel shoes and general running shoes [2], but they were confined to research on pressure distribution of foot and studies on muscle activity and gait cycle depending on shoes heel were rare. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to examine change of gait (gait parameter) on shoes sloe form through gait analyzer.

Summary

Background

Preceding studies reported that differences in pressure distribution according to shoe type [1] and there were many comparative analyses of motor mechanics between travel shoes and general running shoes [2], but they were confined to research on pressure distribution of foot and studies on muscle activity and gait cycle depending on shoes heel were rare. The purpose of this study was to examine change of gait (gait parameter) on shoes sloe form through gait analyzer. Gait analyzer is composed of two sending and receiving bars of 5cm long and webcam and the width of both bars was 1m. The subject’s gait was sensed between sending and receiving bars and information of temporal and spatial variables was collected. All subjects of this study put three kinds of shoes including high heel, MBT shoes and house shoes and were measured once respectively. The researcher said to subjects “walk please”, subjects were put on three kinds of shoes once and walk 5m on gait analyzer. Subjects were measured by putting a pair of shoes and allowed to take a rest for 2 min
