    Hi
    I have oftern thought that some form of electrnic monitoring and recording of real time activity and use by the client would be really helpful as to the effectiviness of differing off loading devices Porvided to the client.
    it woulds also be nice to have some reliable data on activity levels and intensity of activity. Stresses placed on the foot.
    This might also help validate treatment provided as being effective or not, and possibly suggest modifictions or when devices need repalcing.
    The iproblems i have is i really dont know what is out there in the market place?
    How one would incorarate this into a shoe or orthotic device?
    The reliability?
    and not to forget the cost?

    Has anyone tried using these type of devices and didi it prve useful?
