About this study

Official title: Comparison of the Effect of a Morton's Extension on Plantar Pressure Distribution in Different Foot Regions in Female and Male Patients Without Deformities: A Pre-Post Test Study

The aim of this study is to simulate the orthopedic treatment called Morton's extension on non-deformed patients to check the different effects producted by sex in footprint.

Read the detailed description

The objective of this study is to perform an assimilation of the orthopedic treatment called morton extension on non-deformed patients to verify the difference effects due by sex on each metatarsal head and rearfoot on its static footprint, and plantar pressures variables in dynamic footprint.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Before Morton Extension Medium pressure

    Static footprint will measure medium plantar pressures of first, second third fourth fifth and midfoot rearfoot and forefoot in Kilopascals (KPa). Subjects were instructed to stand barefoot on the force platform, participants were instructed to remain in a relaxed standing posture with feet shoulder-width apart and positioned at 30º away from the midline.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 week.

  2. Extension Maximum pressure

    Static footprint will measure maximum plantar pressures of first, second third fourth fifth and midfoot rearfoot and forefoot in Kilopascals (KPa). Subjects were instructed to stand barefoot on the force platform, participants were instructed to remain in a relaxed standing posture with feet shoulder-width apart and positioned at 30º away from the midline.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 week.

  3. After Morton Extension Medium pressure

    Static footprint will measure medium plantar pressures of first, second third fourth fifth and midfoot rearfoot and forefoot in Kilopascals (KPa). Subjects were instructed to stand barefoot on the force platform, participants were instructed to remain in a relaxed standing posture with feet shoulder-width apart and positioned at 30º away from the midline.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 week.

  4. After Morton Extension Maximum pressure

    Static footprint will measure maximum plantar pressures of first, second third fourth fifth and midfoot rearfoot and forefoot in Kilopascals (KPa). Subjects were instructed to stand barefoot on the force platform, participants were instructed to remain in a relaxed standing posture with feet shoulder-width apart and positioned at 30º away from the midline.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 week

  5. Before Morton Extension Medium pressure

    Dynamic footprint will measure medium plantar pressures of first, second third fourth fifth and midfoot rearfoot and forefoot in Kilopascals (KPa). Subjects were instructed to stand barefoot on the force platform, participants were instructed to remain in a relaxed standing posture with feet shoulder-width apart and positioned at 30º away from the midline.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 week

  6. Before Morton Extension Maximum pressure

    Dynamic footprint will measure maximum plantar pressures of first, second third fourth fifth and midfoot rearfoot and forefoot in Kilopascals (KPa). Subjects were instructed to stand barefoot on the force platform, participants were instructed to remain in a relaxed standing posture with feet shoulder-width apart and positioned at 30º away from the midline.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 week

  7. After Morton Extension Medium pressure

    Dynamic footprint will measure medium plantar pressures of first, second third fourth fifth and midfoot rearfoot and forefoot in Kilopascals (KPa). Subjects were instructed to stand barefoot on the force platform, participants were instructed to remain in a relaxed standing posture with feet shoulder-width apart and positioned at 30º away from the midline.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 week

  8. After Morton Extension Maximum pressure

    Dynamic footprint will measure maximum plantar pressures of first, second third fourth fifth and midfoot rearfoot and forefoot in Kilopascals (KPa). Subjects were instructed to stand barefoot on the force platform, participants were instructed to remain in a relaxed standing posture with feet shoulder-width apart and positioned at 30º away from the midline.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Womens with Morton´s Extension in people with Healthy, run by Mayuben Private Clinic at 1 site in Spain.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 9 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Mar 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Spain. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Before Morton Extension Medium pressure (time frame: Through study completion, an average of 1 week.). The study lists 8 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Mar 2025.
