Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Group 1: pregnant women with pelvic girdle pain
This group will consist of pregnant women who are in the 2nd or 3rd trimester of pregnancy and have pelvic girdle pain.
Evaluation of biomechanics and viscoelastic properties of plantar fascia
The biomechanical and viscoelastic properties of the plantar fascia will be measured in the side lying position.
Measurements will be made with the ankle in neutral position and maximum dorsi flexion position.
Evaluation of navıcular drop
The amount of navicular drop of both feet will be measured
Evaluation of plantar pressure distrubution
The distribution of foot plantar pressure and the amount of change in the center of gravity will be measured in the free standing position.
Group 2:pregnant women without pelvic girdle pain
This group will consist of pregnant women who are in the 2nd or 3rd trimester of pregnancy but have not pelvic girdle pain.
Evaluation of biomechanics and viscoelastic properties of plantar fascia
The biomechanical and viscoelastic properties of the plantar fascia will be measured in the side lying position.
Measurements will be made with the ankle in neutral position and maximum dorsi flexion position.
Evaluation of navıcular drop
The amount of navicular drop of both feet will be measured
Evaluation of plantar pressure distrubution
The distribution of foot plantar pressure and the amount of change in the center of gravity will be measured in the free standing position.
Group 3: healthy women
This group will consist of healthy women who have not been pregnant.
Evaluation of biomechanics and viscoelastic properties of plantar fascia
The biomechanical and viscoelastic properties of the plantar fascia will be measured in the side lying position.
Measurements will be made with the ankle in neutral position and maximum dorsi flexion position.
Evaluation of navıcular drop
The amount of navicular drop of both feet will be measured
Evaluation of plantar pressure distrubution
The distribution of foot plantar pressure and the amount of change in the center of gravity will be measured in the free standing position.
