Abstract

Purpose: This study was designed to investigate the effects of foot wear suitability on fear of falling in elderly. Methods: Total of 66 older people individuals (29 men and 37 women) with and without falling stories were included in the study. Individuals without musculoskeletal injuries in the past year, walking aid for ambulation, neurological diseases which caused balance disorders and falling, diabetic foot have been included in this study. Footwear Assessment Score which includes vamp and sole material, heel height, shoe style, and sole flexion point were used to evaluate the shoe suitability of individuals with mean aged 70.5±4.8 years. While the fear of falling was assessed using the Tinetti Falls Efficacy Scale and Activities Specific Balance Confidence Scale, Berg balance test was used for balance. Individuals with and without falling stories were compared for foot wear suitability, fear of falling and balance. Results: There was no statistically significant relationship between foot wear suitability and fear of falling (p>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference when individuals with falling stories compared with those without falling stories in terms of foot wear suitability (p>0.05), there was a difference in terms of balance (p

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışma, yaşlı bireylerde ayakkabı uygunluğunun düşme korkusuna olan etkisini araştırmak amacıyla yapıldı.Yöntem: Çalışmaya düşme öyküsü olan ve olmayan 66 birey (37 kadın, 29 erkek) katıldı. Çalışmaya son bir yıl içinde kasiskelet sisteminde yaralanması olmayan, ambulasyon için yürüme yardımcısına ihtiyaç duymayan, denge bozukluğuna vedüşmeye neden olabilecek nörolojik hastalığı olmayan, diyabetik ayağı olmayan bireyler dahil edildi. Yaş ortalaması 70,5±4.8yıl olan bireylerin ayakkabı uygunluğunu değerlendirmek için saya ve taban malzemesi, topuk yüksekliği, bükülme noktası,ayakkabı stili gibi parametreler içeren Ayakkabı Değerlendirme Ölçeği kullanıldı. Tinetti düşme etkinliği ölçeği ve AktiviteyeÖzgü Güven ölçeği kullanılarak düşme korkusu değerlendirilirken, denge için Berg denge testi kullanıldı. Düşme öyküsü olanve olmayan bireyler ayakkabı uygunluğu, düşme korkusu ve denge yönünden karşılaştırıldı.Bulgular: Ayakkabı uygunluğu ile düşme korkusu arasında anlamlı ilişki olmadığı gözlendi (p>0,05). Düşme öyküsü olanbireylerle, düşme öyküsü olmayan bireyler ayakkabı uygunluğu açısından kıyaslandığında fark bulunmazken (p>0,05), dengeaçısından farkın olduğu belirlendi (p
