dc.description.abstractDiabetic foot is a serious complication of diabetes that affects millions of people worldwide. It is characterized by poor circulation, nerve damage and high plantar pressure that can lead to the development of foot ulcers and amputations. Offloading plantar pressure in certain regions is extremely important. In this paper we propose a preliminary methodology for a new concept of a pneumatic insole to offloading pressure on critical points in the plantar region of the diabetic foot. It is expected that this pneumatic insole will have an intelligent and differentiated performance in result of the pressures imposed inside the shoe. The proposed methodology consists of producing an insole with pockets, located in critical regions of the foot, which can be inflated with air to maintain a stable pressure. If any region is identified with a pressure above the defined threshold, these pockets can empty until the pressure is uniform. This pneumatic insole will promote a better redistribution of plantar pressure in the diabetic foot, it does not add significant weight or volume to the shoe and should bring greater comfort to the user.pt_PT
