Diagnostic Modeling for Pedal Fat Pad Atrophy
In Brief
An observational study evaluating Ultrasound of the foot, Pedobarograph Measurements, and 1 other intervention for Fat Pad Atrophy and Pain. Completed, enrolled 20 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The investigators hypothesize that there is a difference in plantar tissue thickness, plantar pressure, and pain score in patients diagnosed with plantar fat pad atrophy compared to healthy, foot-type matched controls. Results will be measured objectively using ultrasound for tissue thickness, optical pedobarograph for plantar pressure, and Manchester foot pain and disability index (MFPDI) for pain score. Furthermore, investigators predict that these results will help establish criteria for fad pad atrophy diagnosis in the clinic as well as determine which patients would receive greatest benefit from fat grafting to the foot.

An ultrasound will be used to determine the thickness of the fat pad
This non-invasive device measures the force and pressure of the foot while standing and walking.
This is a patient completed questionnaire that assesses level of function from the past month specific to foot pain.
