Purpose : The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of the height increase elevator shoes insole on the gait parameters and dynamic balance, static balance, predictive balance in adult male.
Methods : The subjects were recruited 50 male without orthopedic disabilities, vestibular damage or visual impairment. The test of gait and balance performed on Treadmill Gait Analysis(TGA)-Functional Training System(FTS), Balance Biodex System(BBS), Functional Reach Test(FRT) test according to Ocm , 5cm , 7cm of the height insole. The order of height of insole was randomly selected. The data was conducted by one-way repeated measures ANOVA.
Results : The step length(left), walking time(right), the number of steps on gait parameters were a statistically significant difference according to increased height of insole(p<.05). The dynamic and static balance were significant differences at 7cm height of insole(p<.05). Predictive balance was a statistically significantly difference according to increased height of insole(p<.05). The results of this study implicated to be reduced the ability of balance and changed gait parameters according to increased height of insole.
