The study aimed to investigate the relationship between foot posture and dynamic balance in patients with knee osteoarthritis. A total of 58 subjects were selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Foot posture was assessed using the Foot Posture Index (FPI), while dynamic balance was evaluated using the Functional Reach Test. Descriptive analysis showed that individuals with a pronated foot posture with moderate to high risk of falls, indicating impaired dynamic balance. Furthermore, to show association between foot posture and dynamic balance, Mann-Whitney Test was performed. The finding suggest increased risk of fall in pronated foot compared to neutral foot posture.
