Custom foot orthoses can aid running injury management, but more research is needed on their efficacy. Designing these devices requires considering running biomechanics and individual patient factors for optimal outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Biomechanics
  • Sports Medicine
  • Orthotics

Background:

  • Running injuries are common, necessitating effective management strategies.
  • Custom foot orthoses are utilized in managing running-related injuries.
  • Evidence-based medicine demands further research into orthotic efficacy.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the epidemiology of running injuries.
  • To discuss the rationale and application of custom foot orthoses for runners.
  • To explore design and material choices for custom orthotic fabrication.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review on running injury epidemiology.
  • Analysis of custom foot orthoses in running.
  • Discussion of fabrication considerations for orthotics.

Main Results:

  • The epidemiology of running injuries presents a significant area of concern.
  • Custom foot orthoses offer a potential intervention for running injuries.
  • Orthotic design must account for the unique biomechanics of running.

Conclusions:

  • Further research is crucial to establish the efficacy of custom foot orthoses in evidence-based practice.
  • The design of custom foot orthoses for runners must differentiate from walking mechanics.
  • Patient-specific factors, including biomechanics and performance expectations, guide orthotic prescription.
