Podiatric and Stabilographic Examinations of the Effects of School Bag Carrying in Children Aged 11 to 15 Years

Abstract: Background: The issues raised in this study were inspired by the concern for the musculoskeletal status of school children. Carrying excess weight in the form of a school bag in this period of life affects the correct body posture of school children. The aim of the study was to analyze the influence of school bags on the feet force distribution on the ground and postural balance in children of both sexes between 11 and 15 years of age. Methods: The study investigated the distribution of pressure forces on the … Show more

“…Research by Feka provided evidence that the weight status of the children can affect the plantar load distribution, with the obese category being different from other categories [21]. Moreover, Jaszczur-Nowicki [22] and Bukowska [23,24] proved that prolonged overloading with backpacks affects movement patterns, which may further lead to the acquisition and consolidation of postural defects. Therefore, the subject of this investigation requires more criteria to be taken into account in order to obtain more reliable and precise results.…”
