Abstract
Research background. Flat foot is one of the most important reasons for children to refer to foot clinics. Foot posture also is one of the intrinsic factors for lower extremities injuries, as it has an important effect on the relation between the ground reactions force and the axes of rotation of lower extremity as well as the corresponding forces developed on these structures. Researchers have suggested that, the Star excursion balance test (SEBT) can be used in dynamic postural-control related to lower extremity injuries assessment. Research aim. To evaluate can schoolchildren's foot posture peculiarities are the risk factor for lower extremities injuries. Research methods. Participants. Our survey included 68 secondary school children: 58,82 percent boys and 41.18 percent girls. The average age of girls was 11.6±0.1 years, boys – 11.9±0.1 years. The study was approved by the Biothics Center of Lithuanian University of Health Sciences. [...].
