Abstract

ABSTRACT
 Sacroiliac joint dysfunction(sijd) is created by repetitive stresses and is ligaments and muscles cause compressive and elastic forces [1].Muscles ligaments and joints are mechanoreceptors and retains stability and bearings of the body movements sense proprioception. [9].However there is a little research investigating the relationship between sijd and balance.
 
 Aim: To investigate the relationship between sijd and static/dynamic balance.
 
 Methods: 20 subjects with sijd and 20subjects without SIJ dysfunction(control group-CG)were evaluated by standing flexion,sitting flexion and Gillet's Test.In addition to sociodemographic features, visual analog scale(VAS) was used for pain assessment.Manuel Muscle Testing (MMT) was used for assessing strength of rectus abdominis and lumbar extensors.Static balance was evaluated by single leg stance test (SLST) with open and closed eyes.Dynamic balance was evaluated by Prokin PK200.
 
 Results: For statistical analysis SPSS program was used.There were significant difference in static balance of the lower extremities without visual feedback between subjects with sijd and CG(p
