This study compared foot posture in people with and without medial compartment knee osteoarthritis OA using a range of clinical foot measures. The reliability of the foot measures was also assessed. Methods The foot posture of 32 patients with clinically and radiographically-confirmed OA predominantly in the medial compartment of the knee and 28 asymptomatic age-matched healthy controls was investigated using the foot posture index FPI vertical navicular height and drop and the arch index. Independent t tests and effect size Cohen s d were used to investigate the differences between the groups in the foot posture measurements. Results Significant differences were found between the control and the knee OA groups in relation to the FPI vs. p d medium effect size navicular drop vs. p d large effect size and the arch index vs. p d large effect size . No significant difference was found for vertical navicular height vs. p d negligible effect size . Conclusion People with medial compartment knee OA exhibit a more pronated foot type compared to controls. It is therefore recommended that the assessment of patients with knee OA in clinical practice should include simple foot measures and that the potential influence of foot structure and function on the efficacy of foot orthoses in the management of medial compartment
