Abstract:
BACKGROUND:We sought to investigate the clinical efficacy of the Fuss-sole (Kuroda, Osaka, Japan), a newly developed stocking, in patients with severe foot pain attributable to rheumatoid arthritis. METHODS:The Fuss-sole stocking incorporates a plantar insole made of breathable fabric. Twenty patients with rheumatoid arthritis and severe foot pain were enrolled in this study. Clinical efficacy was evaluated using the Japanese Orthopaedic Association's foot-scoring system. Outcome measures were evaluated before and after a 1-month trial of the Fuss-sole stocking. RESULTS:Use of the Fuss-sole stocking resulted in significant improvements in foot pain, activities of daily living, and total scores. CONCLUSIONS:Use of the Fuss-sole improves the quality of life of patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
