The Relationship Between Pelvic Floor Dysfunction and Quality of Life, Functional Capacity, Gait Parameters, and Static Balance in Children With Defecation Disorders
Defecation disorders are common in children and may adversely affect pelvic floor function, gait, balance, functional capacity, and health-related quality of life. Although pelvic floor dysfunction is considered an important component of defecation disorders, its relationship with gait characteristics, plantar pressure distribution, static balance, functional capacity, and health-related quality of life has not been fully investigated in children.
The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between pelvic floor function and gait parameters, plantar pressure distribution, static balance, functional capacity, and health-related quality of life in children with defecation disorders. Pelvic floor function will be evaluated using surface electromyography and the Kelly Continence Score. Gait parameters, plantar pressure distribution, static balance, functional capacity, and health-related quality of life will be assessed using validated and standardized assessment methods.

Yksityiskohtainen kuvaus
Defecation disorders are among the most common gastrointestinal disorders in children and are associated with impaired pelvic floor function, reduced functional capacity, altered gait characteristics, balance impairments, and decreased health-related quality of life. Despite the recognized role of pelvic floor dysfunction in children with defecation disorders, the relationship between pelvic floor function and physical performance outcomes has not been comprehensively investigated.
This observational study aims to evaluate the relationship between pelvic floor function and gait parameters, plantar pressure distribution, static balance, functional capacity, and health-related quality of life in children with defecation disorders.
Eligible participants will undergo a comprehensive baseline assessment. Demographic and clinical characteristics, including age, sex, anthropometric measurements, medical history, and defecation characteristics, will be recorded. Defecation disorders will be evaluated according to the Rome IV diagnostic criteria.
Pelvic floor function will be assessed using surface electromyography and the Kelly Continence Score. Functional capacity, gait parameters, plantar pressure distribution, static balance, and health-related quality of life will be evaluated using validated assessment methods. The relationships between pelvic floor function and the clinical and functional outcome measures will be analyzed.
