Abstract

Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the associations between joint position sensation and light touch sensibility and levels of physical activity among university students. Method: Fifty university students, 24 females and 26 males, participated in the study. Students were divided into 3 groups according to their physical activity levels. Physical activity level was assessed using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire and joint position sense was assessed using Baseline® digital goniometer at 15°, 30°, 45° and 60° angles of the knee joint. Light touch sensation was evaluated with the Semmes-Weinstein Monofilament test. Results: The mean age of the participants was 19.60 ± 0.80 years. Physically active participants had higher joint position sense at 30° and 45° flexion of the knee and light touch sensation medial to the patella than inactive participants (p<0.05). There was a positive correlation between physical activity level and knee joint position sense at 30°, 45°, 60° (p<0.05). Conclusion: As the level of physical activity increased, the joint position sense of the knee joint and light touch sensation at the medial and midpoint of the patella increased.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı üniversite öğrencilerinin fiziksel aktivite düzeyleri ile eklem pozisyon hissi ve hafif dokunma duyusu arasında ilişkiyi incelemekti. Yöntem: Fiziksel aktivite düzeyi Uluslararası Fiziksel Aktivite Anketi ile eklem pozisyon hissi Baseline® marka dijital gonyometre ile diz ekleminin 15°, 30°, 45° ve 60° açılarında değerlendirildi. Hafif dokunma duyusu Semmes-Weinstein Monofilament testi ile değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Yeterli düzeyde aktif katılımcıların, dizin 30° ve 45° fleksiyonundaki eklem pozisyon hissi ve patella medialindeki hafif dokunma duyusu inaktif katılımcılara göre daha yüksekti (p<0.05). Fiziksel aktivite düzeyi ile 30°,45°,60°’deki diz eklem pozisyon hissi ve diz ekleminin tüm açılardaki eklem pozisyon hissi ortalaması arasında pozitif yönlü ilişki vardı (p<0.05). Sonuç: Fiziksel aktivite düzeyi arttıkça diz ekleminin tüm açılarında eklem pozisyon hissi artmıştır.
