Özet:

 The aim of our study was to analyze the scapula position of healthy individuals and individuals with chronic low back pain and to determine its relationship with balance functioning and proprioception. Chronic low back pain patients n40, age: 31.13 and healthy individuals n41, age: 28.37 with similar age and physical characteristics were included in the study. Pain intensity was assessed using a visual analog scale and pain tolerance was assessed using an algometer. Lateral scapular shift test was performed for scapular position assessment. Functionality in activities of daily living was evaluated with the Oswestry Disability Index. Biodex Balance System was used to evaluate the dynamic and static balance of the individuals. Proprioception was measured using an inclinometer device in lumbar flexion and extension positions with eyes openclosed. As a result of the study, when the difference between healthy and chronic low back pain groups was examined, no significant relationship was found in terms of proprioception p0.084, pain tolerance p0.64 and scapula position p0.570. However, a significant difference was found in the balance parameters between individuals in left foot dynamic p0.036, static p0.035 and dynamic bipedal p0.039. According to the findings obtained as a result of the study, there were differences in balance parameters between individuals with chronic low back pain and individuals of similar age group. However, no differences were found between scapula position, pain and proprioception. We think that more effective results will be obtained in future studies with older age groups.

 Çalışmamızın amacı kronik bel ağrısı olan bireyler ile sağlıklı bireylerin skapula pozisyonunu incelemek, denge fonksiyonellik ve propriosepsiyon ile ilişkisini belirlemek amacıyla tasarlanmıştır. Çalışma en az 3 ay süreli ağrı şikâyeti olan kronik bel ağrılı n40, yaş: 31.13 ve benzer yaş grubu ve fiziksel özelliklerdeki sağlıklı bireyler n41, yaş: 28.37 dahil edildi. Bireylerin ağrı şiddeti vizüel analog skala ve ağrı toleransı algometreyle değerlendirildi. Skapular pozisyon değerlendirmesi için lateral skapular kayma testi uygulandı. Bireylerin günlük yaşam aktivitelerindeki fonksiyonelliği Oswestry Disabilite İndeksi ile değerlendirildi. Bireylerin dinamik ve statik dengelerini değerlendirmek için Biodex Denge Sistemi kullanıldı. Proprioseopsiyonu, gözler açıkkapalı koşullarda lumbal fleksiyon ve ekstansiyon pozisyonlarında inklinometre cihazı kullanılarak ölçüm yapıldı. Çalışma sonucumuzda sağlıklı ve kronik bel ağrılı gruplar arasındaki fark incelendiğinde propriosepsiyon p0.084, ağrı toleransı p0.64 ve skapula pozisyonu p0.570 açısından anlamlı ilişki bulunamamıştır. Ancak bireyler arasında sol ayak dinamik p0.036 ve statik p0.035 ve dinamik çift ayak p0.039 dengede anlamlı fark bulunmuştur. Çalışma sonucunda elde edilen bulgulara göre kronik bel ağrısı olan bireyler ve benzer yaş grubundaki bireylerde arasında denge parametrelerde farklılık bulundu. Ancak skapula poziyonu, ağrı ve propriosepsiyon arasında farklılıklar bulunmadı. Gelecekte daha ileri yaş grupkarıyla yapılan çalışmalarda daha etkili sonuçlar elde edileceği düşüncesindeyiz.
