Currently 77% of Americans experience foot pain, of which a large portion can be attributed to plantar fasciitis. Approximately half of the people with foot pain do not consult a doctor due to cost, convenience, or insurance reasons. To this end, HP will implement an end-to-end system to provide 3D-printed custom orthotic inserts to patients in a fast and efficient manner via their podiatrist.~The Arize Orthotic solution developed in collaboration with podiatrists and leading industry experts, is a new digital solution that helps podiatrists create custom foot orthoses tailored to the patient, quickly, easily, accurately, and reliably. The Arize Orthotic Solution leverages HP 3D Printing technology and aims to further HP's mission to create technology that makes life better for everyone, everywhere.~This pilot study will evaluate the effectiveness and clinical benefit of 3D printed foot orthotics compared to traditionally fabricated custom-made orthotics and assess compliance and patient satisfaction in patients with plantar fasciitis.
