Test–retest reliability of dynamic plantar loading and foot geometry measures in diabetics with peripheral neuropathy

Highlights ► Dynamic plantar pressure distribution measures are commonly used in neuropathic–diabetic populations. ► Despite common usage, currently no evidence exists for the test–retest reliability of this measure for this population. ► Test–retest reliability of dynamic plantar pressure distribut...

Description
Summary:Highlights ► Dynamic plantar pressure distribution measures are commonly used in neuropathic–diabetic populations. ► Despite common usage, currently no evidence exists for the test–retest reliability of this measure for this population. ► Test–retest reliability of dynamic plantar pressure distribution measurements was investigated using a Novel EMED-AT platform. ► Overall we observed high levels of test–retest reliability, generally commensurate with that previously reported in healthy populations.
