stride

A

one gait cycle
it is the same foot making contact again

broken into 3
weight acceptance
and
single limb support
and

Q

joints in initial contact

A

HIP: 30 degrees flexion hip extenders contract concentrically to pull hip into extension

knee- 5 degrees flexed knee extenders ecccentic to absorb ground contact

ankle- 0-5 degrees dorsiflex ankle dorsis ecccentric to lower foot to ground

Q

joints in load response

A

hip- 5-10 degrees flexion hip extenders to extend hip concentrically to pull into extension

knee- 15-20 flexed knee extenders ecentric to prevent knee collapse

ankle 0-5 degrees ankle dorsies eccentric to lower foot and prevent foot slap

Q

joints in mid stance

A

hip- 5-10 flexed hip exnteders to extend hip to complete pull

knee- 5-10 flexed extend knee concentrically to push knee into extension

ankle- 5-10 dorsiflexion akle plantar ecentric slow fwd motion of shaft

Q

joints in terminal stance

A

hip- 5-10 extension, hip flexers ecentric to control hip extension

knee- 5-10 flex knee flexors concetric to bend knee for clearence

ankle 5-10 dorsiflexion ankle plantar ecentric to continue forward motion

Q

joints in pre swing

A

hip- 10 degrees extension hip flexors flex by concentric pull thigh forward

knee 30-40 degrees flex and knee extensors ecentric to control knee collapse

ankle- 5-10 degrees plantar concentrically to propel

Q

lower limb function in gait

A

acccel and deccel movement
stabilise body for efficent movement
produce appropriate movement requiered for locomotion

Q

at start of stance the hip

A

flexed moves to less flexed ( extension )
then in swing phase moves from extension to flexion ( flexion _
allow pelvis and trunk to be erect
heel strike is start of gait

16
Q

knee during gait is

A

always flexed to decrease shock absorption
greatest flexion is 60 degrees for clearence

17
Q

ankle in gait will

A

1- plantarflex- reduce impact of heel strike
2- dorsiflex- advance body weight over foot
3- plantarflex- to prepare limb for swing
4- dorsiflex- during swing allows for clearence of foot

18
Q

pelvic motion in gait

A

pelvis drops to non supported limb side
activate of controlateral glue medius and minimus if not leads to trendelbery gait

small tilt anterior and posterior 5 degrees

19
Q

pelvis in heel strike

A

posterior tilit

20
Q

pelvis in mid stance

A

anterior tilt

21
Q

pelvis in swing

A

anterior tilt

22
Q

pelvis in pre swing

A

posterior tilt

23
Q

trunk movement in gait

A

thorax and shoulder
upper limb swings contralaterally

24
Q

centre of gravity

A

point body weight is most concentrated
in anatomical position it is at s2 on sacrum anterior

lowest in double support

25
Q

movement on centre of gravity

A

lateral- due to lateral transfer of leg 4cm total

limit this to
minimise energy expenditure
limit wear and tear of musculoskeletal

26
Q

inversion and eversion to COG

A

shock absorb
limits inferior and superior

27
Q

plantarflexion to cog

A

limit inferior

28
Q

anterior pelvic rotation to cog

A

limit inferior

29
Q

knee flexion support phase to cog

A

limit superior

30
Q

anterior pelvic in swing to cog

A

limit superior in early

31
Q

wide stance limits

A

cog shift

32
Q

windlass effeect

A

Describes how when the toes are extended, tension is placed on the aponeurosis​

This raises the longitudinal arches, and stores energy​

When the toes are extended, the tension is released, producing propulsion for gait ​

33
Q

pelvis in trendelenberg gait will

A

drop on the opposite side when the weak side is in stance phase

it lifts on the weak side in stance
