Foot Pronation in Healthy Adult Clinical Trial
Official title:
Influence of Gait and Running on Foot Posture Index and Navicular Drop Modifications for Non-athletes.
Objective: To evaluate in a sample of healthy non-athlete subjects, if the foot tends to a pronated position during a period of running compared to walking, evaluated during and after one hour after performing said activity. Design: Quasi-experimental study, experimental and control group. Setting: Subjects who attend the Podiatry Clinical Area of the University of Seville. Participants: N=72 healthy non-athlete volunteer adults who regularly run.
Interventions: The volunteers will participate in the research on three occasions, the day of data collection, one day when they will carry out a one-hour walking period and on another occasion where they will carry out an hour of running. Changes in foot posture [FPI] or foot pronation position (navicular drop [ND]) were identified in various periods of time at the time of the initial assessment and examination (p1), after 30 minutes of walking or running ( p2), 45 minutes of walking or running (p3) and 60 minutes of walking or running (p4) of the activity elapsed. Main outcome measures: Foot position will be measured using the Foot Posture Index (FPI) and navicular height using the navicular drop test (ND) at p1, p2, p3 and p4. ;
