15
Q

What is the ability to support the body against gravity?

A

Stability/Postural Control

16
Q

What is the main point of stair walking when dealing with adaptability?

A

changed in stair environment

17
Q

What are the two main phases of gait and their respective perscentages of the gait cycle?

A

Stance Phase (starts when the foot strikes the ground)= 60% Swing Phase (starts when the foot leaves the ground)= 40%

19
Q

Why do we need mobility?

A

mobility is a key feature of our independence as human beings

20
Q

What at the aspects of stance phase?

A
  1. Intial contact 2. Loading response 3. Mid-stance 4. Terminal stance 5. Preswing
21
Q

What is velocity?

A

meters/second in research 40 feet or for 6 min (examples) in clinic

22
Q

In rehabilitation, it is important for PTs to have a thorough understanding of ______ on the foundation of _____ and _____ necessary to accomplish mobility function and adapt to complex environmental situations.

A

mobility stability strength

23
Q

What is the main part of swing phase when concerned with stability and postural control?

A

repositioning of the limb in preparation for weight acceptance

24
Q

What is often the primary goal of patients?

A

to regain mobility

26
Q

What is the main idea behind stance phase when concerned with adaptability?

A

changes in speed and direction or alterations in the support surface

27
Q

What is the important part of swing phase during progression?

A

advancement of the swing leg to reposition the limb and make sure toes clear the ground

28
Q

What is adaptability?

A

the ability to adapt gait to changing task and environmental requirements

29
Q

What is the main part of stance phase when concerned with stability and postural control?

A

vertical forces support the body mass against gravity

30
Q

What is the ability to generate forces that can move the body in a desired direction (and initiate and terminate movement)?

A

Progression

31
Q

What the main idea behind stair walking when it comes to stability/postural control?

A

control of the CoM within a constantly changing base of support

32
Q

What the main point of stair walking that deals with progression?

A

generating of forces to propel the body upstairs (concentric) or to control the body’s descent downstairs (eccentric)

33
Q

What is the important part of stance phase during progression?

A

stabilizing limb for weight bearing and generating forces to move the body for continued motion
