Abstract:
This disclosure relates to a computer-implemented system and related methods for the design, evaluation, and/or manufacture of protective patient footwear, such as shoes, braces, boots, casts, corrective footwear, and orthoses. The system includes suitable hardware, software, and related peripherals, which function to acquire data related to the patient's particular footwear needs, such as by image capture, including three-dimensional scanning. The system may also acquire data through other sources of input, such as through one or more sensors for detecting various physiologic parameters associated with the lower extremity, or through input of medical conditions, prior indicators, exam, analysis, lab results, or the like, such as through medical practitioner input or other input protocols. The various inputs may be suitably processed to generate output in the form of a design accommodation to design or modify the protective patient footwear, or in the form of one or more medical evaluations or recommendations.

Claim (Index 1):
A computerized system for evaluation of protective patient footwear for a lower extremity, the system comprising:\n a design engine implemented on a computer having programmable memory and at least one processor that executes instructions stored in the programmable memory; at least one sensor positionable relative to the lower extremity to detect at least one physiologic parameter of the lower extremity, the physiologic parameter selected from the group consisting of plantar pressure, friction, temperature, force, force direction, contact area, acceleration, movement, moisture, temperature, and elapsed time; wherein the design engine is programmed to (a) receive input from the sensor corresponding to the physiologic parameter detected; (b) determine whether the input comprises an out-of-range value for the physiologic parameter; and (c) in response to the determination, generate an output to address the out-of-range value, the output consisting of at least one of a design accommodation and a treatment recommendation.
