Plantar fasciitis is a common musculoskeletal condition characterized by heel pain and impaired foot function, often linked to abnormal foot biomechanics. The Navicular Height Drop (NHD) test is a non-invasive tool used to assess dynamic foot posture by measuring changes in the medial longitudinal arch. Evaluating the test's responsiveness and minimal clinically important difference (MCID) can help determine its clinical relevance in monitoring treatment outcomes. Study objective to evaluate the responsiveness and determine the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) of the Navicular Height Drop (NHD) test in patients with plantar fasciitis.

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Navicular Height Drop Test (NHDT) | This test measures the change in the position of the navicular bone during weight-bearing, helping to assess foot arch collapse and the impact of abnormal foot biomechanics, which is crucial in conditions like plantar fasciitis | 12 Months |
| GLOBAL RATING OF CHANGE (GRC) | The GRC scale is a simple tool where patients rate their overall improvement after treatment. It is often used to establish the MCID by comparing patients' subjective perceptions of improvement with changes in objective measures like NHDT. The responses are usually rated on a Likert-type scale, which might look like this:+7: Very Much Improved ,+6: Much Improved ,+5: Improved ,+4: Minimally Improved ,+3: No Change ,+2: Minimally Worse ,+1: Worse ,0: Very Much Worse(31). | 12 Months |
| Foot Function Index | A self-reported questionnaire assessing pain, disability, and activity limitation in individuals with foot disorders, commonly used to assess the functional impact of plantar fasciitis. | 12 Months |
