Abstract

Introduction: - Increase in body mass index suggests an increase in adiposity, Excess body fat depositionleads to change in the Center of Pressure which leads to altered biomechanics of the body. Different systemswork together to maintain balance. The present study finds a relationship between BMI and dynamic balancein young adults with flexible flat foot.Method: - In this study, 30 participants were recruited based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Of the30 participants; 10 were of normal weight, 10 were overweight and 10 were obese. Y balance test wasperformed.Discussion: - The study showed that dynamic balance significantly changes with an increase in weight inyoung adults with flat feet. It is more significant in overweight and obese subjects. Any changes in ankleand foot complex leads to changes in weight-bearing, muscle imbalance static as well as dynamic balancein ambulation.

Abstract

Background: Balance is one of the primary requirements for both static and dynamic activities. Body MassIndex (BMI) is measurement for estimating excess body fat. The Lower Quarter Y-Balance Test (YBTLQ) is a screening instrument that measures single-leg balance in different directions. Flexible flatfoot isthe postural aspect with depressed medial longitudinal arch, pronated subtalar joint and valgus position ofcalcaneus, evident only in weight-bearing position.Methods: An analytical correlation study with 255 participants (Purposive sampling) will be taken as perinclusion and exclusion criteria with study duration of 3 years. The BMI, sit to stand Navicular Drop Test(SSNDT), limb length and medial longitudinal arch angle (MLAA) will be measured and compared. Themean score of the Y Balance Test in different categories of BMI will be compared by performing one wayANOVA test. The mean score of the Y Balance Test between two groups in each category of BMI will becompared by Bonferroni t-test.Conclusion: The study aims the correlation of BMI with the dynamic balance on Y-balanced test in adultswith flexible flat foot. The expected outcome of study will concentrate on the significant correlation of YBalance Test in different categories of BMI.
