Aim: The aim of this study was to compare the lower
extremity muscle strength and balance scores in university students with and
without joint hypermobility.

Method: The study was performed in faculty of health science.
35 volunteer students attended to this study. The participants were grouped
according to the Beighton score. The lower extremity muscle strength and
balance scores of both groups were assessed and evaluated.

Results: There is no significant difference between the
sociodemographic values ​​and the physical activity capacity of the two groups.
In addition, there was no significant difference between the muscle strength
and Flamingo balance test results of both groups.

Conclusion: There was no relationship between hypermobility and
lower extremity muscle strength and static balance.

Bening Eklem Hipermobilite Sendromu Olan ve Olmayan Lisans Fizyoterapi Öğrencilerinde Alt Ekstremite Kas Gücü ve Denge Skorlarının Karşılaştırılması

Öz

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı,
eklem hipermobilitesi olan ve olmayan üniversite öğrencilerinde alt ekstremite
kas gücü ile denge skorlarının karşılaştırılmasıdır.

Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışma sağlık bilimleri
fakültesi fizyoterapi ve rehabilitasyon bölümü öğrencilerinde gerçekleştirilmiştir.
Çalışmaya 35 gönüllü öğrencisi dahil edilmiştir. Katılımcılar Beighton skoruna
göre gruplandırılmışlardır. Her iki grubun alt ekstremite kas gücü ve denge
skorları ölçülüp karşılaştırılmıştır.

Bulgular: İki grubun sosyodemografik
değerleri, fiziksel aktivite kapasitesi arasında bir fark yoktur. Ayrıca her
iki grubun kas gücü ve Flamingo denge testi sonuçları karşılaştırılması
sonucunda da anlamlı bir fark bulunamamıştır.

Sonuç: Çalışmamızda
hipermobilite ile alt ekstremite kas gücü ve statik denge arasında ilişki
bulunamamıştır.
