Gait Kinematics Analysis of Flatfoot Adults

Background: Foot postural alignment has been associated with altered gait pattern. This study aims to investigate kinematic differences in flatfoot subjects’ regarding all lower limb segments compared neutral foot subjects. Methods: A total of 31 participants were recruited (age: 23.26 yo ± 4.43; height: 1.70 m 0.98; weight: 75.14 kg 14.94). 15 subjects integrated into the group, and remaining 16 placed group. All particpants screened using Navicular Drop Test Resting Calcaneal Stance Position test characterize each results submitted analysis a MOCAP system. Results: Significant between groups found for ankle joint dorsiflexion, abduction, internal external rotation (p < 0.05). Additionally, significant knee flexion, extension, peak values 0.001). also hip rotation, pelvis 0.02). Several amplitude concerning abduction/adduction, flexion/extension 0.01). Conclusion: Flatfooted showed changes their patterns. The impact on this condition locomotion biomechanical aspects is clinically essential, 3D use could be advantageous early detection health impairments related posture.
