(1) Background: During pregnancy, changes in foot biomechanics affect structural stability and gait. (2) Objective: To map the available evidence for changes in foot biomechanics during pregnancy and the postpartum period. (3) Methods: Scoping review according to the methodology of the Joanna Briggs Institute through the relevant databases via EBSCO, MEDLINE with full text, BioOne Complete, CINAHL Plus with full text, Academic Search Complete, and SPORT Discus with full text. The search was conducted in SCOPUS and PubMed. (4) Results: Eight studies were included in the scoping review. Two independent reviewers performed data extraction and synthesized data in narrative form. We found that changes in the length and volume of the foot occur during pregnancy and remain in the postpartum period. (5) Conclusions: During pregnancy, anatomical and biomechanical changes occur in the pregnant woman's foot, potentially contributing to the risk of musculoskeletal disorders. However, more research is needed to determine whether these biomechanical changes can lead to the risk of musculoskeletal disorders.
(1) 背景：孕期足部生物力学的变化会影响结构稳定性和步态。(2) 目的：梳理孕期及产后足部生物力学变化的现有证据。(3) 方法：按照乔安娜·布里格斯研究所的方法进行范围综述，通过EBSCO、拥有全文的MEDLINE、BioOne Complete、拥有全文的CINAHL Plus、Academic Search Complete以及拥有全文的SPORT Discus等相关数据库进行检索。检索在SCOPUS和PubMed中进行。(4) 结果：范围综述纳入了八项研究。两名独立评审员进行了数据提取，并以叙述形式综合了数据。我们发现孕期足部长度和体积会发生变化，且在产后依然存在。(5) 结论：孕期孕妇足部会发生解剖学和生物力学变化，这可能会增加肌肉骨骼疾病的风险。然而，需要更多研究来确定这些生物力学变化是否会导致肌肉骨骼疾病风险。
