简要总结
The investigators are trying to study that there is no difference in improvement of motion between static progressive and dynamic splinting.
详细描述
A physical rehabilitation device for the treatment of a medical condition of the foot known as plantar fasciitis includes a splint which is connected to the toe and ankle of a patient. Static splint is the use of inelastic components to apply torque to a joint in order to statically position it as close to end range as possible. A dynamic splint uses a tension spring that is integrated into a brace, usually via a mechanical hinge. The tension spring can be adjusted for more or less tension to achieve range of motion goals with less pain. The investigators are trying to study that there is no difference in improvement of motion between static progressive and dynamic splinting.

入选标准
- •Demographic - Over 18 years of age and ambulatory without a gait aid with no history of narcotic use
- •Diagnosis - Unilateral or bilateral acute (< 6 months of pain) plantar fasciitis (i.e., Heel pain that increases with weightbearing, "First step pain": heel pain that occurs after a period of non-weightbearing, such as in the morning when arising from bed or when arising after prolonged sitting; the pain is improved after a few minutes walking but will worsen again with prolonged weightbearing, tenderness over the medial calcaneal tuberosity at the insertion of the plantar fasciitis)
- •Permitted - Icing, NSAIDS( ibuprofen), Custom Shoe Inserts, Diagnostic Ultrasound
排除标准

结局指标
主要结局
NO pain at 1 month follow up
时间窗: 1 months
We plan to use VAS pain scale as measurement scale ( range; 0-10, higher scores correspond to greater pain)
NO pain at 6 months follow up
时间窗: 6 months
We plan to use VAS pain scale as measurement scale ( range; 0-10, higher scores correspond to greater pain)
NO pain at 3 months follow up
时间窗: 3 months
We plan to use VAS pain scale as measurement scale ( range; 0-10, higher scores correspond to greater pain)
NO Pain at 1 Month Follow up
时间窗: 1 months
Pain measured on a visual analog scale (VAS): score range: 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain)
NO Pain at 3 Months Follow up
时间窗: 3 months
Pain measured on a VAS: score range: 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain)
NO Pain at 6 Months Follow up
时间窗: 6 months
Pain measured on a VAS: score range: 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain)
次要结局
- Clinically relevant change in Foot Function Index (FFI)(6 months)
- Foot Function Index (FFI) Score(1 month)
