Objective: The purpose of this study was to analyze the range of movement of the ankle and
the vertical ground reaction force involved in gait among diabetic patients with and without
peripheral neuropathy. Sample and Method: 36 individuals were divided into three groups:
Control group–CG: 10 individuals without diabetes, Diabetic group–DG: 10 individuals with
diabetes without peripheral neuropathy and Neuropathy, and Diabetic neuropathic group–
DNG: 16 individuals with diabetes and peripheral diabetic neuropathy. Gait-AMTI® OR6/6m …
Objective
The purpose of this study was to analyze the range of movement of the ankle and the vertical ground reaction force involved in gait among diabetic patients with and without peripheral neuropathy.
Sample and Method
36 individuals were divided into three groups: Control group–CG: 10 individuals without diabetes, Diabetic group–DG: 10 individuals with diabetes without peripheral neuropathy and Neuropathy, and Diabetic neuropathic group–DNG: 16 individuals with diabetes and peripheral diabetic neuropathy. Gait-AMTI® OR6/6m and range of tibiotarsal joint movement–System Vicom 640® was carried out in all the participants.
Results
The first and second vertical ground reaction force peaks were statistically higher in the neuropathy group, and the range of ankle motion was lower in the Diabetes and Neuropathy groups.
Conclusion
The range of movement of the tibiotarsal joint is lower in diabetics, regardless of the presence or absence of peripheral neuropathy, and diabetics with peripheral neuropathy show an increase in the first and second vertical ground reaction force peaks during walking.
