Abstract
Purpose: It was aimed to estimate the static and dynamic postural balance performance in adults with
different Body Mass Index (BMI) levels.
Material and Methods: The study was conducted in Üsküdar Diabetes and Obesity Treatment Center
between September and October 2021. Participants were divided into 5 groups according to BMI scores:
normal-weight, overweight, 1st degree obese, 2nd degree obese, and 3rd degree obese. In addition,
participants' static and dynamic balance performance were assessed by the Limits of Stability (LOS) and
modified Clinical Test of Sensory Integration of Balance (m-CTSIB) tests.
Results: For LOS parameters, there was a significant difference between groups in reaction time scores
only for the backward direction (p<0.05). The endpoint and maximum excursion measurements except for
the backward and directional control measurements except for the back and right were significantly
different between groups, with the worst scores for 3rd degree obese group (p<0.05). For the m-CTSIB
test, there was a significant difference between groups in all parameters except the eyes open condition
on foam surface (p<0.05).
Conclusion: The 3rd degree obese individuals are the most affected subgroup in dynamic balance. We
recommended that rehabilitation and fall prevention programs primarily focus on 3rd degree obese
individuals.
