Variable Density Insole
Description
One Of The Avenues I Am Investigating Is The Problem Of Foot Ulceration, Common In Diabetes Sufferers. This Can Lead To A Serious Chain Of Events Leading To Over 6000 Related Amputations A Year In The Uk. It Is Estimated That About 80% Of These Are Preventable. Treatment Costs To The Nhs In The Uk Are In Excess Of £650M/Annum. It Is Hoped That A Low Cost Custom Insole That Is Sympathetic To The Patients Requirements Could Help Dramatically In This Scenario. I See 3D Printing Taking The Initiative And Leading The Solutions Once Again. This Is My Latest Insole Creation. A Variable Density Infill Print From A Foot Scan In Filaflex.
