Balance Clinical Trial - Relationship Between Foot-ankle Characteristics &

Status Active, not recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

It has been shown that foot and ankle postural disorders can alter the biomechanic of lower extremity and pelvis. This situation can affects balance, postural control and phsical performance of individual adversely. However, it is unknown whether the muscles that control lumbopelvic are affected or not affected. The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between foot-ankle characteristics and lumbopelvic control, balance and physical performance in healthy young adults.

Clinical Trial Description

A healthy load distribution at the foot depends on the ability of the foot to fulfill both the task of stabilization and mobilization. Studies related foot movement disorders usually focus on subtalar joint. The reason for this is that subtalar joint transmits the rotations which in leg to the foot. One of the deformities affecting the foot and subtalar joint is pes planus. Kosashvili et al. have shown that grade 2 and 3 pes planus can affect the lower limb biomechanical alignment, resulting in an increase in perceived pain associated with the knee, hip and pelvic region. Problems related to foot and ankle can affect the balance of individuals as well as affect the pelvic region. Sung et al. have shown that the postural stability and balance of individuals with pes planus are worse than those without pes planus. Studies showing that foot-ankle postural disorders negatively affect physical fitness and motor performance of individuals are also present. Akaras et al. have stated that the increase in pronation in the hindfoot affects individuals' leap and agility performance negatively. It has shown that leg-related problems can affect upper. However, there is no objective study of ultrasonographic imaging of core muscles in foot-ankle problems. The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between foot-ankle characteristics and lumbopelvic control, balance and physical performance in healthy young adults. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
