Resumo(s): | This study aims to evaluate the changes performed on a specific type of shoes, laking into account the ergonomic and anthropometric aspects involved in its use. Due to the need to evaluate the bone structure of the considered subject case study, a conventional X-ray was performed, which has demonstrated a shortening of the left leg of 29 mm and a probable adduct foot. Anthropometric evaluation of the subject confirmed the asymmetry in the left lower limb, located between the knee and the left foot in 27mm. The corrective changes were implemented in the left boot. Asymmetries and associated pathologies were identified and the footwear chosen by the user was adapted according to the specificities identified. The anthropometric analysis showed that the adopted compensation on the left boot, and according to the observed data, contributed to a postural improvement. The proposed objectives were achieved. |
