Characteristics of studies

Characteristics of included studies [ordered by study ID]

Burns 2006

Methods

Prospective randomized, single‐blind, sham controlled trial.

Participants

154 adults with chronic foot pain. Pes cavus was defined by a Foot Posture Index score of –2 or less, which is 2 standard deviations below the reported normal mean of +5 (Redmond 2006).

Interventions

Custom‐made foot orthoses versus sham orthoses.

Outcomes

Foot pain, functional limitation, health‐related quality of life, in‐shoe plantar pressure at 3 months.

Burns 2010

Methods

Prospective randomized, single‐blind, experimental trial.

Participants

10 children aged 3 to 14 years with Charcot‐Marie‐Tooth disease type 1A. Pes cavus was defined weight bearing by a Foot Posture Index score between –12 and –1 (Redmond 2006)

Interventions

One leg received intramuscular injections at six‐monthly intervals of botulinum toxin type‐A in the posterior tibialis and peroneus longus muscles, and one leg received no intervention.

Outcomes

Primary outcome was radiographic alignment at 24‐months. Secondary outcomes were objective clinical measures of foot structure, ankle flexibility and strength.

Hertel 2005

Methods

Experimental, randomized cross‐over trial.

10 healthy young adults. Cavus feet were subjectively categorised as those having a high medial
longitudinal arch accompanied by either excessive rearfoot varus and/or excessive forefoot valgus.

Interventions

Three off‐the‐shelf orthotic combinations (neutral post, medial post, lateral post) versus no orthotic device.

Outcomes

Electromyography of 3 muscles (vastus medialis, vastus lateralis and gluteus medius) during 3 activities (squat, step down and vertical jump).

Notes

No follow‐up.
