        Purpose: This study was aimed to investigate the relationship between postural control and hand function in the elderly. Methods: One hundred-five elderly individuals that are 65 years old or over and living in a nursing home were included in the study. Postural control status (Berg Balance Scale) and hand function (manual dexterity: Nine Hole Peg Test, hand grip strength: handheld dynamometer, pinch grip strength: pinchmeter) of elderly individuals were evaluated. Results: The mean age of the subjects was 76.59±6.92 years, and there were 25 females (23.8%) and 80 males (76.2%). There was a statistically significant correlation between postural control and manual dexterity (dominant hand: r=0.857, p=0.001 and non-dominant hand: r=0.794, p=0.001). A statistically significant correlation between postural control and hand grip strength (dominant hand: r=0.430, p=0.001 and non-dominant hand: r=0.423, p=0.001), and a statistically significant relationship was found between postural control and pinch grip strength (dominant hand: r=0.390, p=0.001 and non-dominant hand: r=0.305, p=0.002). Conclusion: Our study showed that there was a significant relationship between postural control and hand function. This suggests that postural control-enhancing exercise programs might be useful. Therefore, we thought that further study is needed to investigate the effects of postural control to protect and improve the hand function for the elderly enhancing exercise programs for the elderly on the hand function to clarify the issue.
        Amaç: Bu araştırmanın amacı yaşlılarda duruş dengesi ve el fonksiyonu arasındaki ilişkinin incelenmesiydi. Yöntem: Huzurevinde yaşayan 65 yaş ve üstü 105 yaşlı birey araştırmaya dahil edildi. Yaşlı bireylerin duruş dengesi durumu (Berg Denge Ölçeği) ve el fonksiyonu (el becerisi; Dokuz Delikli Peg Test, el kavrama kuvveti; el dinamometresi, parmak kavrama kuvveti; pinchmetre) değerlendirildi. Sonuçlar: Olguların yaş ortalaması 76,59±6,92 yıl ve 25'i kadın (% 23,8), 80'i erkek (% 76,2) idi. Duruş dengesi ve el becerisi arasında (dominant el r=0,857, p=0,001 ve non-dominant el r=0,794, p=0,001), anlamlı ilişki olduğu belirlendi. Kavrama kuvveti ve posural kontrol (dominant el r=0.430, p=0,001 ve non-dominant el; r=0,423, p=0,001). Parmak kavrama kuvveti ve postual kontrol arasında ise (dominant el r=0,390, p=0,001 ve non-dominant el (r=0,305, p=0,002) istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir korelasyon olduğu saptandı. Tartışma: Araştırmamız postüral kontrol ile el fonksiyonları arasında anlamlı bir ilişki olduğunu gösterdi. Bu durum yaşlı bireylerin el fonksiyonlarını koruma ve geliştirme için postüral kontrolü artırıcı egzersiz programlarının faydalı olabileceğini akla getirmektedir. Bu nedenle ileriki çalışmalarda, yaşlı bireylere uygulanacak postüral kontrolü artırıcı egzersiz programlarının el fonksiyonları üzerine etkilerinin incelenmesinin konuya açıklık getireceği düşünülmektedir.
