Lomber Disk Hernili Hastalarda Q açısı ve Hamstring Uzunluğunun Denge Performansına Etkisi

Abstract Amaç: Patellafemoral angle (Q açısı) ve Hamstring uzunluğu dengenin değerlendirilmesinde önemli ölçümlerdir. Çalışmada Lomber intervertebral disk herniasyonu (LDH) hastalarında Q açısı ve Hamstring uzunluğunun denge performansı üzerine etkisinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Materyal ve Metod: Çalışmaya LDH (n=32) ve Kontrol grubu (KG)(n=30) dahil edildi. Katılımcıların Q açılarına ve hamstring kas uzunluğuna bakıldı. Denge durumu Y balans denge testi ile değerlendirildi. Results: Çalışmamızın sonucunda LDH hastaları ve KG grupları arasında hamstring kas uzunluğu arasında fark olmadığını; LDH hastalarında Q açısının düştüğünü ve Q açısı ile sağda R-Anterior, R-Posteriomedial, R-Posteriolateral değerleriyle; solda ise, ; L-Anterior, L-Posteriolmedial, L-Posteriolateral değerleri arasında yüksek düzeyde negatif ilişki olduğunu bulduk. Sonuç: LDH hastalarının Q açısı ölçümlerinin azaldığını, bu durumun genu varuma sebep olduğunu ve bunun sonucunda ise özellikle sol anterior, anteriomedial ve anteriolateralde dengenin bozulduğunu tespit ettik

The effects of Q angle and Hamstring Length on Balance Performance in Patients with Lumbar Disc Hernia

Aim: Patellafemoral angle (Q angle) and Hamstring length are important measurements to evaluate balance. This study aims to examine the effects of Q angle and Hamstring length on balance performance in patients with lumbar intervertebral disc herniation (LDH). Material and Methods: LDH (n=32) and control group (CG)(n=30) were included in the study. Q angles and hamstring muscle lengths of the participants were measured. Balance was evaluated with Y balance test. Results: As a result of our study, no difference was found between LDH patients and CG groups in terms of hamstring muscle length; Q angle decreased in LDH patients and there was a negative high correlation between Q angle and R -Anterior, R-Posteromedial, R-Posterolateral values on the right and between Q angle and L-Anterior, L-Posteriolmedial, L-Posterolateral values on the left. Conclusion: It was found that Q angle measurements decreased in LDH patients, causing genu varum and leading to impairment in balance, especially in the left anterior, anteromedial and anterolateral.
