Abstract

Background and aim:Proprioception is one of the most important factors in preventing injury, which is influenced by many factors, including the circadian rhythm. Proprioceptive dysfunction can increase the risk of injury and falls in the elderly.The aim of this study was to investigate effect of two different time of day on accuracy of knee JPS among Kerman elderly men.Materials and Methods:Twenty elderly men with mean age of 68.09±6.34years old,height171.23±6.99cm and weight75.12±10.54kg were selected randomly from among60volunteer participants,based on inclusion and exclusion criteria of study.Reconstruction error data of knee joint was measured.AutoCAD software was used to analyze the images and repeated measures ANOVA was used to compare data at different times.Results:Despite recording different records at different times and also decreasing mean reconstruction errors in early hours of day and according to results of analysis of variance in results of knee joint angular reconstruction error measurements at different times of day No statistical significance was observed.Although different records were recorded at different hours,and although mean of regenerative errors was lower in early hours of day,according to results of analysis of variance,there was no significant difference in results of regenerative error measurements at both angle of45(p=0.591)and 60(p=0.310)of knee joint at different times of day.Conclusion:According to results, accuracy of proprioceptive function in knee joint is not affected by circadian rhythm and,there is no difference in likelihood of injury and possibly fall risk of elderly at different times of day due to proprioceptive dysfunction while performing physical activities in different hours of day and night.
