of the population, with the highest relative increase in the muscles
that cross the ankle joint (Nigg etal.2010). However, this is variable
among subjects. This contrasts to an ‘unstable’ shoe that is unsafe to
wear because it is ill tting, worn-out or not appropriate for the task
being undertaken, for example wearing high heels to run a marathon.
Although the evidence suggests that unstable shoes with builttechnologies can lead to a change in ‘venous parameters’ like blood
ow in healthy populations (Lerebourg etal.2020), it is important to
note that appropriate footwear should be carefully recommended
considering the patient’s mobility and balance, and with safety being
of paramount importance.
Fit andCondition ofFootwear
The t of footwear is important in helping a person to walk pain free
and to allow optimal function during gait. Incorrectly tting shoes
have been linked to foot pain and foot disorders (Buldt and
Menz2018). There is no international sizing convention for footwear
and shoe brands will use anatomical last shapes when making shoes.
The last is a 3D model of a human foot that is used to construct a
shoe. The last shape depends on the country the shoe is from and on
the model of a typical foot from that region of the world. The style
and shape of the shoe will then be determined by the footwear producer and most shoe lines are mass made. It is therefore imperative
that patients check shoe t before purchase. See Figure4.5 for helpful suggestions when choosing footwear.
Patients may also present in footwear that they deem appropriate
but are inappropriate, or may be struggling to nd footwear that ts
over bandaging. Due to socioeconomic factors, they may have wornout footwear or even have had to repair shoes themselves. If this is
the case and the footwear is putting the patient at risk of falling or
non- healing, then referring the patient on to surgical appliances or
supplying them with temporary footwear is an option.

Temporary Footwear
It is not uncommon for a patient to go into a temporary shoe, like a
Darco healing sandal, during an episode of ulceration, as these better
accommodate compression bandaging (Figure 4.6). However, it is

important to remember that these shoes are temporary and should be
checked and replaced on a regular basis.
When transitioning a patient from bandaging into compression
garments, it is important to ensure that they have a well- tting and
appropriate shoe to wear. Consider asking the patient to bring their

shoes and the slippers they would normally wear so that you can
assess the t and style to see if any changes need to be made or if new
footwear needs to be considered.
Bespoke or Semi-
bespoke Footwear andFootwear Modications
Some patients may have a foot shape or structure that does not t
into retail footwear, or they may require footwear modications.
Rocker- soled shoes are important for patients with CVI and VLUs, as
the rocker sole enables improved ankle movement and thus enhances
the action of the CMP (Figure4.7). There are many retail shoes
ranges that have rocker soles, but in some cases it may be necessary
for a patient to have their shoes modied and have a specialist rocker
sole added. There are other modications that can be made to shoes
to help improve gait and mobility. This requires assessment with a
footwear specialist or podiatrist to ascertain what would be the most
appropriate modication given the person’s underlying medical
issues and biomechanical function.
Advice andEducation
Patient education on the important features of footwear is essential, as footwear can enhance foot function and enable improved

haemodynamics in the lower limb (Lerebourg etal.2020). Shoes
should have a fastening (this could be a lace or Velcro®) that
helps to secure the shoe to the foot to enable optimal gait.
Asturdy heel counter to hold the heel in place will provide stability in the rear foot during heel strike and a rocker sole will
bend where the foot bends. This will enhance sagittal plane
movement, aid in CMP function and ooad the forefoot. Suggesting
shoes with a wide opening and a removable insole will help provide
extra room for oedematous feet or feet in bandaging or compression garments.
Changing footwear can be seen as a lifestyle change and must
be considered among other important factors such as cost, purpose
and choosing the right shoe for the right activity or occasion. Being
aware of these barriers is important, as it will help identify potential issues behind why a patient is reticent to change their footwear
and guide in future management. When patients do not wish to
change their footwear after being given information on optimal
footwear and the reasons why, then they have made an informed
choice and this discussion can be revisited later when they may be
more open to change.
Foot Orthoses
An orthosis is dened as ‘an appliance to support, align, correct
deformity or motion of parts of the body’ (Mills etal.2010). Orthotic
provision in general has been reported to help people achieve optimal health and QoL, and enable them to work and live independently
(Chockalingam etal.2019).
Foot orthoses (Figure 4.7) are appliances that can be inserted
into footwear to manage a number of foot and ankle pathologies
(Mills etal.2010) and can help to improve symptoms in chronic
foot conditions like rheumatoid arthritis (Hennessy etal. 2012).
VMPs in the lower limb rely on optimal lower limb function, so
foot orthoses should be considered where lower limb function and
movement are sub-
Research has reported improvements in pedobarographic
examination (the study of pressure acting between the plantar
surface of the foot and a supporting surface) when using orthoses

redistribution of power loads on the plantar surface of the foot were
noted. This included greater activation of the external and internal
plantar veins when using viscofoot posture in patients with CVI (Saggini etal.2009). Custom foot
orthoses have been studied and, again, positive ndings have been
reported in terms of improved venous return in the lower limb
(López- López etal. 2018). These positive ndings in the biomechanical parameters, improved venous return and improved activation
of the VMP of the foot and calf substantiate the use of orthoses in
clinical practice.

REDUCING FALLS RISK
A fall is dened by Public Health England (Oce for Health Improvement and Disparities2022) as ‘an event which causes a person to,
unintentionally, rest on the ground or lower level and is not a
result of a major intrinsic event’. Research has shown that 75–80%
of falls where no injury was sustained are not reported (Fleming and
Brayne2008) and that there is a stigma associated with falls (Homan
etal.2018). This is why asking questions and screening for the risk of
falls are so important, as this may help to mitigate the incidence of
falls and thus the sequelae of a fall, which can have a negative impact
on a patient’s mobility and exacerbate CVD or VLUs in terms of
prolonged healing.
Screening andAssessment ofFalls
Screening will help determine if further assessment or onward referral is required. One of the simplest screening approaches is to ask if
the patient has fallen in the last 12 months and then enquire about
the frequency and nature of the fall(s). Observation of the patient
walking is also useful to obtain objective information on how the
patient is moving and if they are using walking aids, if these appear
appropriate in terms of wear and height, as this may cause instability
and possibly result in a fall.
It is reported in the literature that a proportion of patients with
VLUs have reduced ankle ROM (Back etal.1995; Davies etal.2007;

https://t.me/medicina_free
Atkin etal.2016; de Souza etal.2022). Studies have shown that
people with decreased ankle exibility fall more often than those
with adequate ankle exibility (Menz2021). Long-
term bandaging
for VLUs can alter gait by impairing the ankle ROM (Atkin
etal.2016). Therefore, patients with VLUs and a restricted ankle
joint ROM are more at risk of falls. Injuries resulting from falls can
lead to pain and immobility, which will have an impact on uid
dynamics in the lower limb and can result in a longer episode of
ulceration.
Screening Tools forFalls
There are many validated and reliable mobility screening and assessment tools available to the practitioner and these can be used in the
home or clinical setting (Table4.5) (Tinetti etal.1986; Podsiadlo and
Richardson1991; Bogle Thorbahn and Newton1996).
Falls are complex, and in-depth assessment should be undertaken
by a practitioner or a team to ensure the most appropriate interventions are in place to help reduce the risk of a fall. Patients who are at
high risk of falls or who have a fear of falling should be referred to the
appropriate service for assessment.

ALLIED HEALTH PROFESSIONALS ASPART
OFTHE MULTIDISCIPLINARY TEAM
Populations are ageing worldwide. People are living longer and this
leads to higher levels of chronic disease (Saxon etal.2014). This will
have a direct impact on the numbers within the population who have
CVI and VLUs in the future.
The standards of care for long- term management of wounds have
been debated within the evidence, consensus documents produced
and various recommendations made (Atkin etal.2019). The current
trend within the evidence is that VLUs, especially those that are
deemed long term, should be escalated to a specialist service or a multidisciplinary team (MDT) (Atkin etal.2019). This notion is associated
with the standards of best practice that are based on the UK national
diabetic foot ulcer guidelines for MDT referral (Atkin etal.2019). Recommendations for specialty skills to be integrated into best practice
include podiatry, endocrinology and nutrition. While these skills
within the MDT may help those who have long- term wounds, little
attention is paid to addressing the area of management that enhances
mobility and VMP function. This is where AHPs who have a musculoskeletal scope of practice at the core of their skill set can be used to
enhance best practices within current and future guidelines.
CONCLUSION
This chapter has examined the important factors that inuence
mobility, biomechanical function, gait assessment and management
of MSK factors within the population of people who have CVD and
VLUs. The evidence elucidates the decreased levels of mobility, CMP
dysfunction and physical impairments that are present within this
group of patients. It is important to address these underlying MSK
issues, which may be inuenced by social or patient- related factors
for a positive clinical outcome and may not always be within the
scope of practice of wound care nursing. If this is the case, then
onward referral is warranted. This ensures that the patient receives
thecare they need to address any underlying causes for musculoskeletal issues in order to enhance mobility, expedite wound healing and
prevent the occurrence of a venous leg ulcer in the future.
