The selection of materials for the production of multilayer insoles for diabetic feet is a difficult task owing to the lack of technical information about these materials. Therefore, objective criteria were established for the selection of these materials.
Mechanical- and comfort-related tests for the mechanical characterization of different materials and their combinations were considered. These tests were conducted according to standardized test methods for polymeric cellular materials.
Criteria for the use of cellular materials were obtained. The properties of accommodation, cushioning, and filling materials were established and the most adequate polymer nature for each of the three applications was identified. Variables that affect the properties of these material combinations were studied.
These test results will allow podiatrists to select insoles in a more objective way, thus achieving a more successful treatment for diabetic foot-related injuries.
由于缺乏有关这些材料的技术信息,为糖尿病足生产多层鞋垫的材料选择是一项艰巨的任务。因此,建立了选择这些材料的客观标准。
考虑了对不同材料及其组合进行机械表征的机械和舒适性相关测试。这些测试根据聚合物多孔材料的标准化测试方法进行。
获得了使用多孔材料的标准。确定了容纳、缓冲和填充材料的性能,并确定了三种应用中每种应用最合适的聚合物性质。研究了影响这些材料组合性能的变量。
这些测试结果将使足病医生能够更客观地选择鞋垫,从而更成功地治疗与糖尿病足相关的损伤。
