ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for measuring foot forces during walking uses a specially configured spring seated in a transducer plate to transmit static and dynamic forces on the foot during walking to strain gauges mounted on the transducer plate, which, in turn, may be monitored and recorded for diagnostic purposes, particularly to aid in treating patients with lower extremity dysfunction.
