Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The expected outcome of the study is that there is a reduction of at least 4 degrees in the angle of eversion of the hindfoot and forefoot after the application of the rigid bandage. The eversion angle will be measured by means of the three-dimensional evaluation of the gait using the Oxford Foot Model, capable of evaluating the ankle-foot complex kinematics. The reduction will be considered relevant when there is a statistical difference with an error less than 0.05 and the effect size is greater than 0.8 at the moment immediately after the application of the rigid bandage.;The expected outcome of the study is that there is a reduction of at least 4 degrees in the angle of eversion of the hindfoot and forefoot after the application of the elastic bandage. The eversion angle will be measured by means of the three-dimensional evaluation of the gait using the Oxford Foot Model, capable of evaluating the ankle-foot complex kinematics.

The reduction will be considered relevant when there is a statistical difference with an error less than 0.05 and the effect size is greater than 0.8 at the moment immediately after the application of the hyperelastic bandage.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The expected outcome of the study is that there is an increase of at least 2 mm in height of the medial longitudinal arch after the application of the rigid bandage. The height of the medial longitudinal arch will be measured by means of the three-dimensional evaluation of the gait using the Oxford Foot Model, capable of evaluating the ankle-foot complex kinematics. The increase will be considered relevant when there is a statistical difference with an error less than 0.05 and the effect size is greater than 0.8 at the moment immediately after the application of the rigid bandage.;The expected outcome of the study is that there is an increase of at least 2 mm in the height of the medial longitudinal arch after the application of the elastic bandage.
