Definitions

  • the present invention relates to insoles with wound healing zones, predominantly for diabetes patients.
  • US-patent No. 5,329,705 discloses a footgear with an inner sole having a grid of removable, resilient elements to provide relief to overloaded areas of the foot.
  • the gear is all together a rather complicated boot-like structure only available at relatively high costs and impossible to integrate in a normal shoe.
  • a like-wise system is disclosed in the US-patent application 2003/0212358 also having a boot-like appearance.
  • this situation implies a delamination of the loaded skin layer, by which an inner cavity is created inside this skin layer.
  • the skin cells below this cavity will be dead to a large extent, and the skin is loosing its flexibility.
  • the result is, typically, a skin with small cracks, through which bacteria from the foot sole can get access into the hollow cavity in the skin. This leads to an inner inflammation in the skin with the result of a sudden open wound.
  • a further aggravation of the situation is the fact that diabetic patients often develop inflammation in the nerves (neoropathy) in the outermost ends of the nerves in the foot sole which reduces or entirely removes the feeling sensation.
  • a normal feeling sensation in the foot sole automatically causes a person to change the position or the orientation of the body when a local area on the foot sole is subject to a critical load. This reduces the time of the loading and prevents overloading to lead to continuous damage of the foot.
  • diabetic patients loose this automatic reaction pattern when the feeling sensation gets reduced or entirely removed due to nerve inflammation. The consequence for the diabetic patient is that the inflammation in the skin layers evolves without notice by the patient.
  • US-patent 5,768,803 discloses an insole having a bottom layer and a top layer where sections of the layers may be removed to create an empty space directly beneath a corresponding painful area of the foot or by providing inserts between the bottom and the top layer (this configuration comprising all features of the preamble of claim 1) Even though this kind of insoles may prevent further pressure on a critical area under the foot, the remaining part of the foot is still exposed to the remaining load without any solution of a regulated time of this load, thus, further wounds easily develop on the other foot.
  • an insole adjustment kit comprising an upper, elastic, cushioning insole layer and a lower, liquid filled insole layer under the upper layer and at least one pocket between the upper layer and the lower layer.
  • the kit further comprising a number of inserts which are dimensioned for insertion into the pocket. The inserts have mutually different degrees of hardness.
  • An insole adjustment kit has a number of advantages.
  • the different number of inserts allows an individual adaptation to the needs of the user.
  • Harder or softer inserts may be used in order to distribute the load on the foot over a larger or a smaller area.
  • the liquid filled insole typically filled with water, is constructed such that, during load, a hydraulic pressure is provided under the foot. This hydraulic pressure reduces the pressure load on the foot sole by distributing the pressure over a bigger area.
  • the liquid filled insole under the foot of the patient causes relatively large movements of the foot, even during very small changes of the point of gravity of the diabetic patient. As a consequence, the critical kind of load on exposed local areas on the foot is reduced, which is especially important if the diabetic patient has neoropathy.
  • the cushioning upper layer and the inserts with adoptable cushioning inserts provide a three dimensional surface against the foot sole, when the foot is standing on the insole, which results in a larger supporting surface and a pressure equilibrium. Furthermore, this three dimensional supporting surface acts on the liquid filled layer, such that the pressure from the foot is distributed over an even larger area, resulting in a relief of the load against the foot sole, which is much larger by this combination than the sum of the pressure relief by the cushioning upper layer, the inserts or the liquid layer alone.
  • the invention combines the above mentioned two schools, which hitherto have been entirely separated.
  • An example showing the deep separation between the two schools is easily understood from the fact that a representative of the first school using gel filled soles, namely US patent application No. 2004/0168354 , cites in the description prior art representatives of the other school, namely US patent Nos. 5,797,862 and 6,083,185 without any attempt to combine the knowledge from the two schools.
  • the invention provides improvements beyond the results hitherto presented from either of the two schools.
  • the upper or the lower layers are both dimensioned to extend over the entire sole of the foot. This is, however, not strictly necessary, especially, if only part of the foot is desired to provide a pressure relief.
  • the pocket is positioned under the forefoot, where a large part of the pressure is experienced, or under the heel of the foot, or under both depending on which area is desired to be relieved. If there are wounds both on the forefoot and on the heel, an insole according to the invention may still be of great help, even though the pressure from the heel is transferred to the forefoot and the pressure from the forefoot to the heel. The reason for this is that the steady movement of the liquid from the forefoot to the heel and back changes the pressure in the wounded areas continuously, such that blood circulation is rather promoted than prohibited.
  • the pocket may also be placed in the middle of the foot with openings towards the sides of the sole. This may be used for establishing protection especially at the inner and outer side of the middle part of the foot, a location causing problems especially for heavy weight people.
  • an insole according to the invention has a number of advantages.
  • the pronounced pressure equalisation over a larger area has the effect of pressing relief in the skin, which eases the blood circulation.
  • the liquid filled layer increases the movement of the foot and the time of load is reduced in this way.
  • the increased movement of the foot increases the blood circulation in the foot on a general basis, such that the entire insole according to the invention has a substantially prophylactic effect.
  • the system according to the invention is designed in a way that the inserts are part of the kit and have different hardness with corresponding cushioning properties.
  • the pocket is provided as a recess extending into the underside of the upper layer.
  • the depth of the recess is less than the height of the upper layer, such that the recess only extends partly into the upper layer and there is still a part of the upper layer covering the recess.
  • the inserts are dimensioned to fit into the pockets, but may have a thickness that is less than the pocket in order to combine different inserts into the same pocket.
  • the inserts may be dimensioned for insertion of a first insert with a lower hardness than a second insert that is placed underneath the first insert.
  • the insole adjustment kit according to the invention provides the possibility of a great variation of adjustment in accordance with a need of a foot of a diabetic patient or other kind of patient with pre-states of wounds under the foot.
  • the inserts may be provided with a region under the specific risk area for sore, where the compression resistance is lower than in the rest of the insert.
  • Such a reduced compression resistance can be provided by a perforation through the insert.
  • a perforation in the insert is easily provided by the medical or orthopaedic personnel during the adaptation of the insole to the specific skin conditions of the foot of the patient.
  • the pocket may be filled with a first, upper insert and a harder, lower insert, where the second, lower insert has a lateral extension less than the first insert.
  • the hard, second insert may be provided with a lateral extension that is adapted to exert a pressure on the underlying liquid filled insole to a correct degree as estimated or calculated by the orthopaedic or medical personnel during adaptation of the insole.
  • the kit according to the invention contains the equipment necessary for providing an insole within a very short time, for example within an hour or less, which is almost immediately after consultation of an expert by the patient searching pressure relief. This minimises damage to the skin of the foot and prevents possible sore creation and a later risk for a final amputation.
  • the area of the sole may be entirely relieved by providing a hole in the insert.
  • the region of the foot with the risk for a sore would only experience a very light pressure of the upper layer, which is pressed into the hole of the insert and where the insert presses upon the liquid layer creating a pressure equalisation over a larger area without exerting pressure on the sore.
  • the upper layer may suitable be provided by a polymer foam, for example expanded ethylene-vinyl-acetate.
  • Liquid filled layers may be provided by production methods as described in International patent applications WO97/03583 , WO01/08523 , WO02/28216 , WO01/08523 by Vindriis.
  • FIG. 1a is a cross sectional view of an insole from a kit according to the invention.
  • the upper layer 101 for example suitably made of polymer foam, has a first pocket 102 and a second pocket 103 between the upper layer 101 and a lower, liquid filled layer 107.
  • the liquid filled layer may be made of two plastic sheets welded at the borders to provide a closed cavity filled with liquid, typically water.
  • the pockets 102 and 103 are provided as recesses in the upper layer 101. Inside the pocket 102 under the heel area, an insert 104 has been provided. In the pocket 103 under the forefoot, an insert 105 has been provided which has a perforation 106 in order to provide less pressure against the foot sole than the area surrounding the perforation 106.
  • the lower, liquid filled layer 107 is situated between fixation elements 108 and 109 in order to prevent that the lower layer 107 slides relatively to the upper layer 101.
  • the lower layer may be glued on the inserts 104, 105 and the upper layer 101 in order to achieve a proper final fixation ready for use.
  • FIG. 2 illustrates a number of different inserts 105.
  • the first insert in FIG. 2a has a perforation 106 for pressure reduction against the foot sole in the area of the perforation 106.
  • a hole 201 through the insert may be provided.
  • a combination of holes and perforation pattern may be provided, for example as illustrated in FIG. 2c with a perforation 203 surrounding a larger hole 202.
  • FIG. 2d a likewise arrangement of an insert 105 with a hole 205 and a perforation 206 surrounding the hole is illustrated.
  • FIG. 3 illustrates an insole, where the heel insert 104 and the forefoot insert 105 are each provided with a hole 303 and 301, respectively.
  • a second insert 302 is provided, where the lateral dimension of the second insert is smaller than the lateral dimension of the first insert, the first insert 105 having a lateral extension corresponding to the lateral extension of the pocket 103.
  • the smaller, second insert 302 is a thin, flexible and relatively hard plate for distributing pressure from the upper, softer insert 105 over a larger area on the liquid filled, lower layer 107.
  • FIG. 4 illustrates an insole with an upper layer 401, in which the recess 403 in the forefoot region is deeper than the recess 402 in the heel region.
  • the inserts 404 and 405 only the insert 405 in the forefoot, as illustrated in FIG. 4a and 4b is provided with a hole 406.
  • a small, pressure distributing plate 407 is provided in the pocket 401, the pressure distributing plate 407 having a lateral dimension larger than the lateral extension of the hole 406.
  • the recess 403 in the forefoot region is filled with two inserts 408 and 410, each insert having a hole 409, 411, where the hole in the upper insert is smaller than the hole in the loser insert, resulting in a gradual pressure on the foot sole around the hole.
  • the hardness of the two inserts 408 and 410 may be different.
  • a kit for an insole according to the invention provides an advantageous system with many degrees of freedom, yet easily and quickly adjusted.
  • the benefit for the patient is an almost immediate relief, whereas the benefit for the society is reduced costs for treatment at a later stage, where medication and surgery is necessary if the potential damages are not prevented by immediate action at an early stage.
  • an insert 501 under the middle part of the foot which is illustrated in FIG. 5 , showing an insole 500 formed after the flat foot of an overweight person.
  • three inserts 501, 502 and 503 are illustrated, each insert adapted to the needs and cushioning effect desired for the specific person.
  • the inserts 501, 502, 503 may be provided with different perforations or holes in accordance with the needs of the patient and as explained in the foregoing in connection with inserts.
  • Inserts may be inserted into the upper, cushioning insole from the underside of the upper cushioning insole. However, if a more flexible solution is desired, there may be provided access to the pockets from the side of the upper part. For example, there may be provided access to the front pocket under the forefoot from the front of the insole. Likewise, there may be provided access to a heel pocket from the back of the insole or from the side of the insole. For the middle insert, there may be provided access from the side of the insole.
  • the inserts may be placed directly in the pockets with access from the underside of the upper part. Then, the lower, liquid filled part is glued, welded, or otherwise fastened to the upper part of the insole.
  • inserts may be exchanged on demand even after assembly of the insole. For example, the combination of a plurality of inserts in one pocket may be amended during change of conditions for the foot, for example during healing, which makes the kit according to the invention even more flexible.
