Abstract: The present invention relates to an arrangement for producing therapeutic insoles, consisting of a platform with a scanner for scanning the undersides of the patient's feet, a data processing connection for transmitting the scanned image to a computer, a data processing computer program which converts the transmitted data into working instructions for the control of a milling machine, and of said milling machine which mills a therapeutic insole from a blank according to said working instructions, whereby neurological preceptors are placed on the scanner under the patient's foot in accordance with the patient's predisposition, whereby the preceptors are part of a set of standardized preceptors having various dimensions, whereby the preceptors are identified by markings on their underside, and whereby the scanned image contains the identifying markings and the orientation of the preceptors.

Abstract: A device for prevention of ulcers in the feet of diabetes patients is embodied in a footwear article such as in a shoe. The device includes a sensor disposed in a contained liquid mass of a hydrocell carried in the shoe inner sole, the sensor being one that detects both pressure and temperature values to which the patient's feet are exposed. The sensor includes a bridge circuit comprised of four piezoresistors arranged in two diagonally arrayed pairs, the resistance of one pair of resistors increasing and the resistance of the second pair decreasing in the presence of an increase in the pressure condition in the hydrocell, the resistance of all the resistors increasing or decreasing responsive to respective increases and decreases of temperature in the hydrocell.
