Title

Correlation of Foot Arch Index with Dynamic Balance in Underweight Paramedical Students- An Observational Pilot Study

Abstract

Introduction: The ankle and foot complex plays a very important role being the most distal segment of lower extremity and represents small base of support on which the whole balance of the body is maintained, especially in single leg stance. Even the minor neuromuscular or biomechanical changes may be influence postural control strategies to maintain the balance. Methodology: In this study 40 subjects were included according to the inclusion criteria. Baseline data was documented in form of age, BMI, limb length. Foot arch index was assessed using foot print method on white sheet paper and arch index was calculated. Y Balance test was examined for both the leg simultaneously in all 3 directions and composite score was calculated. Result: There is weak negative correlation between foot arch index and dynamic balance with (pearsons coefficient r=-0.22,-0.12-0.22,-0.19) the relation is not significant as p>0.05. There is no significant differences noted between male and female in foot arch index, but significant differences present between Y Balance test score (p<0.05) Conclusion: There is weak negative correlation noted between foot arch index and dynamic balance in both male and female. This says that there might be no dynamic balance issues present with altered arch indexes as the proprioceptors might not be that much affected. But there is significant differences present between male and female Y balance test score suggest significant gender differences present in dynamic balance
