Abstract

Measurements of foot inversion/eversion during gait are of particular interest in people using common peroneal Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES). In addition to addressing excessive equinus in swing, FES systems are commonly prescribed to improve stability at initial contact and/or forefoot clearance in swing, in the presence of excess inversion. To date, the direct effects of FES on foot movement in 3-D have not been published, as available 3-D clinical foot models such as the Oxford Foot Model (Stebbins et al. 2006) require additional markers to be applied to the foot in an accurate manner, preventing their use when footwear is donned.
