Summary

Introduction: Progressive muscle weakness, joint contractures and body alignment disorders seen in patients with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) adversely affect the foot structure of the patients.

Objective: The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between foot posture, performance and ambulation in patients with DMD.

Method: The patient with ambulatory DMD will be included in the study. The foot postures of the patients will be evaluated with the Foot Posture Index. Relationships between the Foot Posture Index and performance tests (6 minute walk test, timed performance tests (10m walking, Gower's, climb/descend 4 stair)) and the North Star Ambulation Evaluation, an ambulation evaluation, will be examined.
