Abstract :
Screening of functional movements and assessment of posture have been suggested to be utilized in predicting the risk of injuries and deformities in active and inactive populations. However, time constraints may limit the general application of this screening protocol. Therefore, the need for a quick access to evaluation and generalization seems inexorable. The aim of this study was the relationship between postural static deformity and pain and quality of life in non-Athlete women. In this research, 148 non-athlete women aged 20 to 40 participated, and the results obtained from their static evaluation were checked with the information obtained from the two questionnaires of Cornell pain and SF-36 quality of life. The impact of evaluation on the results of the two questionnaires was evaluated. Therefore, photos were taken and statically evaluated using a smart mobile phone and analyzed in the Posture Screen application. Data analysis was done with the ETA coefficient (p=0.05). The results showed that, according to the findings, there was a positive and significant correlation between the prevalence of uneven pelvic deformity and the amount of pain in non-athletic women(P=0.036). The presence of uneven shoulder deformities and backward knee caused disturbances in quality of life microscales(p<0/05), (ETA=0.17 (148). Diagnosing musculoskeletal deformities can have an impact on pain, pain intensity, pain recurrence, and possibly on the quality of life. Also, due to the availability of smart phones, photos taken for static evaluations can be recorded and analyzed more quickly. But the use of applications related to skeletal-muscular assessment in smartphones requires more research.
