The Way We Stand: A Sequential Case Study on Foot Angle

This study quantifies the significance of foot angle as it relates to common biometric data assess its use in clinical realm. There are two objectives this study; first determine relationship has with ten surveyed points (age, weight, height, biological makeup, shoe size, orthotic use, physical activity level, competitive sports history, lower extremity injury and reason for visiting doctor), second average left right angles population studied. The duration sequential case a sample size 73 was December 9, 2021, April 7, 2022. Participants were fully informed measurement steps, purpose survey, goal project. asked walk down hallway distraction collect most accurate on participants’ stance. performed at Arizona Institute Motion, office private practice. had option decline participation study. Correlational calculations linear regressions support or reject existence between data. It found that 26.35 degrees, 26.54 degrees. there strong positive correlation angles, weak both size. optimized regression model an adjusted r2 value 0.549 against angle, 0.522 height. Foot no other relationships limited quantitative significance. Additional is required confirm numerical importance, but may continue be used settings conjunction gait analysis qualitative assessments musculoskeletal function. maintain high potential utility when assessments.
