Changes in the parameters of gait after a mechanical debridement of a plantar callosities García-Payá, Irene Gijón-Noguerón, Gabriel Ortega-Ávila, Ana Belén Paez-Moguer, Joaquin Cervera-Marin, Jose Antonio Pies - Heridas y lesiones Abstract Introduction: Plantar callosities are a common cause of pain in the forefoot and also a cause of alterations in plantar pressure. Mechanical debridement with a scalpel can relieve pain and increase functional capacity. Objective: The aim of the study was to analyse if debridement of plantar callosities and corns modify walking. Methods: Thirty four patients with plantar foot pain due to callosities and corns, and up to 5 in the visual analogical scale (VAS) of pain, (20 women, age 29 11.57 years) were analysed by taking into account the changes of their gait. The outcome measurement was the VAS scale and the Win-track system, cycle of the gait(milliseconds), angle(degrees), cadence(number/minutes) and step(centimetres) were measured, 24 h before and after the debridement with a scalpel. Results: There were significant differences in foot pain (mean 67.7, p < 0.001) but there were no significant differences in measures of gait variables before the debridement of the callosities, and 24 h after the procedure, being all those above 0.05. Conclusions: Our study shows that the debridement with scalpel does not change the variables of the gait 24 h after the procedure. 2024-09-29T17:53:45Z 2024-09-29T17:53:45Z 2024-09-29T17:53:45Z 2015 journal article Gabriel Gijon-Nogueron, Irene Garcia-Paya, Ana Belen Ortega-Avila, Joaquin Paez-Moguer, Jose Antonio Cervera-Marin, Changes in the parameters of gait after a mechanical debridement of a plantar callosities, Journal of Tissue Viability, Volume 24, Issue 1, 2015, Pages 12-16, ISSN 0965-206X, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jtv.2014.12.001 https://hdl.handle.net/10630/33928 http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jtv.2014.12.001 eng open access Elsevier
