This study demonstrates higher work efficiency after 6 and 12 mos and improved rate of force development after 12 mos in total hip arthroplasty patients who performed early maximal strength training combined with conventional rehabilitation after total hip arthroplasty surgery compared with total hip arthroplasty patients receiving conventional rehabilitation only. However, the study indicates that a prolonged maximal strength training program and aerobic endurance training are required to fully recover total hip arthroplasty patients.

“…Recently, we have proposed a method to estimate 3D GRF and frictional torque based on vertical pressure distribution measured by plantar pressure insoles (Rouhani et al, 2010). Pressure insoles are very thin and are widely used (Rouhani et al, 2011a), and have been validated (Hurkmans et al, 2006) for clinical gait analysis. Unlike the prototypes of instrumented shoes, these pressure insoles do not perturb the natural gait and can be easily provided by clinics.…”

“…The Pedar Ò system (Novel GmbH, Munich, Germany) is one of the systems most commonly used for in-shoe-pressure measurement. In the literature, several studies confirm the accuracy and repeatability in plantar pressure measurement achieved using this system [2][3][4][5][6]. This system was used to investigate plantar pressure distribution in different conditions, for example, between man and woman [7], between right and left foot [8], between young and old people [9] and with regard to subjects walking barefoot or in comfortable shoes [10,11].…”

The analysis of interaction phenomena occurring between the plantar region of the foot and insole was investigated using a combined experimental-numerical approach. Experimental data on the plantar pressure for treadmill walking of a subject were obtained using the Pedar(®) system. The plantar pressure resultant was monitored during walking and adopted to define the loading conditions for a subsequent static numerical analysis. Geometrical configuration of the foot model is provided on the basis of biomedical images. Because the mechanical behaviour of adipose tissues and plantar fascia is the determinant factor in affecting the paths of the plantar pressure, specific attention was paid to define an appropriate constitutive model for these tissues. The numerical model included sole and insole, providing for friction contact conditions between foot-insole and insole-sole pairs as well. Two different numerical analyses were performed with regards to different loading conditions during the gait cycle. The plantar pressure peaks predicted by the numerical model for the two loading conditions are 0.16 and 0.12 MPa, and 0.09 and 0.12 MPa in the posterior and anterior regions of the foot, respectively. These values are in agreement with experimental evidence, showing the suitability of the model proposed.
