Gait Analysis Flashcards
1
Q
In kinematic gait analysis, what is absolute joint angle versus relative joint angle?
A
Absolute - motion of segment in relation to fixed axis
Relative - motion between 2 adjacent segments
2
Q
What two types of error are limitations of 2 D kinematic?
A
parallax - moves away from axis of camera
perspective - moves out of calibrated plane of motion
3
Q
Explain kinetic vs kinematic
A
kinetic - study of forces generated during movement
kinematic - study of motion irrespective of masses or forces
4
Q
What are types of transducers for force plate systems
A
Strain gauge, piezoelectric sensor, hall effect sensor, capacitance gauge, piezoresistive sensors
5
Q
______ seen as bell shape during trot and ‘m’ shape with walk
A
