The effects of fatigue on plantar pressure distribution in walking

Résumé

The purpose of this study was to assess plantar pressure deviations due to fatigue. Plantar pressure was assessed using a portable system while eleven healthy subjects performed three walking tests, one before, one immediately after and another 30-min after intensive running. Pressure peak, intra-subject coefficient of variation and relative impulse were recorded. Significant decrease in pressure peak and the relative impulse under the heel and the midfoot along with significant increase in pressure peak and relative impulse under the forefoot were observed 30 min after the run. After a 30-min rest, the heel and forefoot loading remained significantly affected compared to the pre-test conditions while variability, step length and frequency remained unchanged. The study demonstrates short-and long-term plantar pressure deviations due to fatigue induced by an intensive 30-min run, while previous studies showed negligible deviation of the ground reaction force.
