Abstract

Background: Flat feet, or pes planus, is a common condition affecting approximately 20-30% of the general population, leading to muscle tension and instability that can impact energy expenditure during walking. Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of Silicone Medial Arch Support in reducing energy expenditure during walking in individuals with flat feet compared to a control group. Methods: A total of 32 participants with flexible flat feet were selected through random sampling. This study employed a quasi-experimental design with a control group using a sham insole and an intervention group using silicone medial arch support for two months. Energy expenditure was measured using VO? max. The average energy expenditure before using silicone medial arch support was 36.76 ± 5.03 ml/kg/min, which increased to 39.75 ± 4.05 ml/kg/min post-intervention (p < 0.001). For the sham insole group, the energy expenditure was 34.67 ± 2.44 ml/kg/min before and 34.87 ± 2.20 ml/kg/min after the intervention (p = 0.183). Results: The use of silicone medial arch support resulted in a significant increase in energy expenditure compared to the sham insole group (p < 0.001). Conclusion: The study concludes that silicone medial arch support can reduce energy expenditure during walking in individuals with flat feet. These results suggest that incorporating well-designed arch support interventions can significantly improve biomechanical efficiency and comfort for individuals with flat feet. Future interventions should consider individual variations in foot morphology and activity levels to optimize support design, potentially integrating adjustable or customizable insoles to better address the diverse needs of this population.

Abstract

Introduction: The Prosthetic Orthotics (PO) School at Health Polytechnic Jakarta I relies on practical skills and various materials in its labs/workshops for device fabrication. To enhance logistics management, this study proposes a new digital application leveraging digital technology's efficiency. The aim is to improve the organization of logistics at the PO school, given the diversity and volume of practicum materials. The study involves developing and evaluating the effectiveness of the new digital application. Method: Using a mixed methods approach, the study employed a focus group discussion (FGD) to gather insights from managerial-level participants and student users. FGD participants discussed the expected design, features, and functions of the new digital management system, as they are actively involved in logistic management. The study also evaluated the new system by comparing it with the old manual system. Results and Conclusion: Participants expressed expectations for a digital application with user-friendly features, easy gadget access, access authorization, automation of stock tracking, and a warning system for stock shortages. The developed digital management system aligned with these expectations and demonstrated superior effectiveness when compared to the manual system in managing a diverse range of practicum materials at the PO School of Health Polytechnic Jakarta I. Time constraints during the COVID-19 lockdown limited the elaboration of additional key features, suggesting a need for future studies to explore other aspects based on the school's evolving needs.
