Abstract
Aims: Pronation distortion syndrome (PDS) is a common postural deviation that can lead to various complications. Prevention and reducing the risk of injury are more important than treatment, and a significant part of this issue can be achieved through pre-participation screening. This study aimed to compare the functional movement screening (FMS) scores in female athletes with and without PDS.
Methods: This study included female athletes with and without PDS, divided into PDS (N=20) and WPDS groups (N=20). PDS was assessed with navicular drop index for flatfoot, flexible ruler for lumbar lordosis, and caliper for Genu valgum, respectively.  The FMS kit was used to determine the FMS scores. The independent T-test was used to analyze inferential statistics, and the Mann-Whitney U test was used to analyze non-parametric data. The significant level is considered to be p < 0.05.
Findings: The results showed significant differences in deep squat (P<0.001), hurdle step (P=0.007), in-line lunge (P=0.027), active straight leg raise (P=0.006), trunk stability push-up (P=0.011), and rotary stability (P=0.005), indicating that the scores for these items were higher in WPDS compared to PDS. Additionally, the findings suggested no difference in shoulder mobility (P=0.277) between the two groups.
Conclusion: PDS seems to influence different body parts' musculoskeletal and functional status, resulting in lower FMS scores among female athletes with PDS. Routine screening and targeted corrective strategies should be implemented to enhance movement quality and decrease injury risk within this group.
