" We present a medical device for the visit of the feet. This device allows you to do a diagnostic evaluation of the first foot and then the comparison by one of the previous visits and the last. This comparison will be very important to understand if the patient is improving. Every year we observe, in growing numbers, children who have problems in the legs and feet. One of the reasons is certainly the lack of consideration that adults reserve to the feet as anatomical structures for the general welfare. The foot is not just an explorer of the surface on which we move but it is essential in the balance and gait from the very early childhood to the adult and the elderly.
With this equipment we can measure the growth of the foot anatomy and biomechanics from birth to adolescence and diagnostic aspects of the foot that grows, identifying if the foot is prone, flat or cave. We can do the screening in schools or in association with more subjects. The importance of this tool is that we can photograph the plantar support or the heel, store the acquired data, make a diagnosis and a specialized prescription and send e.g. by e-mail to different professionals involved. Mostly important is that the examinations made at different times of the patient’s life can be compared and subsequently note whether there will be improvements the initial examination.
The most important aspect of this device is that anytime it will be possible to compare the photographs and therefore evaluate eventual improvements. This important tool is useful to keep track of a disease and then figure out whether therapeutic interventions or orthosis applied brought positive results. All doctors or specialists should adopt an instrument so simple but very important and useful for the physician, physiatrist, orthopedist, physical therapist, pediatrician, podiatrist, posturologist and even the family doctor to keep constantly monitored the growth of the child or the evolution of a disease in an adult subject.
