Resumo
[Abstract] Objective: to know the transfer of static plantar pressures and body weight distribution through the lower limbs that occur
in people with and without the use of orthoses of different densities and influence in other areas of the foot. Material and
Methods: 32 people participated through non-probability convenience sampling in a quasi-experimental study in which
self-reported data were recorded, the determination of plantar pressure, and body weight distribution. Results: 64 feet were
studied, showing no difference between the medium pressure and the forefoot without orthoses of 5 mm and 10 mm. Decrease
in average pressure and percentage of body weight, both statistically significant, with hindfoot orthoses 10 mm was observed.
Conclusions: Given the current evidence for the prescribing and use of foot orthoses is limited, designed to improve the
functionality and prevent the onset of disease and foot deformities, these results highlight the need to prescribe orthotics
10 mm when needed to relieve pressure on the backfoot, not seeing the average pressure increased nor diminished in
other areas of the foot
