适当的蹄准备和对称性与马的健康有关。先前的研究已经表明压力板（PP）在提供客观生物力学分析方面的有效性。我们的目的是使用PP评估蹄修剪对蹄生物力学的影响。九个临床健全的阿拉伯马走过PP，而脚罢工记录的数码相机。修剪前后记录动力学和运动学参数。当p < 0.05时，变化被认为是显著的。修剪后垂直力（p = 0.026）和接触压力（p = 0.006）增加。站立阶段持续时间（p = 0.006），摆动阶段持续时间（p = 0.023）和步态周期持续时间（p = 0.007）在修剪后显著降低。观察到的动力学和运动学参数的变化与蹄修剪有关。报告的结果强调了蹄铁匠实践的重要性及其对蹄生物力学的影响，蹄铁匠和兽医都应该考虑到这一点。
Appropriate hoof preparation and symmetry are linked to the well-being of the horse. Previous studies have shown the efficacy of pressure plates (PPs) in delivering objective biomechanical analysis. We aimed to assess the effect of hoof trimming on hoof biomechanics using a PP. Nine clinically sound Arabian horses were walked across a PP while foot strike was recorded by a digital camera. Kinetic and kinematic parameters were recorded before and after trimming. Changes were considered significant when p < 0.05. Vertical force (p = 0.026) and contact pressure (p = 0.006) increased after trimming. Stance-phase duration (p = 0.006), swing-phase duration (p = 0.023), and gait-cycle duration (p = 0.007) decreased significantly post-trimming. The observed changes in kinetic and kinematic parameters were related to hoof trimming. The reported results underline the importance of farriery practice and its effect on hoof biomechanics, which should be considered by both farriers and veterinarians.
