Gait and Balance - E1 Flashcards
How much time is spent in double limb support?
20%
What is the ground reaction force
The forces applied to the foot by the ground (in equal magnitude & opp direction) occurring in the 3 axis, combining to form one force vector.
What are the joint positions at initial contact?
Ankle: 0-5 PF

What is happening at __A_ from initial contact to the loading response?
a) ankle DF
a) ankle DF - Eccentric to decelerate PF
What is happening at _B__ from initial contact to the loading response?
b) Quads
b) Quads - Eccentric to decelerate knee flexion
What is happening at __C_ from initial contact to the loading response?
c) HS and GluteMax
c) HS and GluteMax - Eccentric to decelerate hip flexion
What is happening at _D__ from initial contact to the loading response?
d) Hip abd
d) Hip abd - Eccentric/iso to decelerate pelvic drop and stabilize pelvis
What is happening at _E__ from initial contact to the loading response?
e) ES, TA, EAO
e) ES, TA, EAO - stabilize trunk during weight transfer and prevent jack-knifing
What is happening at the foot intrinsics from the loading response to midstance?
Foot intrinsics - Eccentrically lengthening as the foot pronates
Where does glute max and med activity peak?
During midstance
What is happening at ____ from the loading response to midstance?
- Ankle PF
Ankle PF: Eccentric - control DF in form of tibial advancement and develop potential energy
What is happening at ____ from the loading response to midstance?
- Quads
- Quads: Eccentric/Isometric control of lower leg
What is happening at ____ from the loading response to midstance?
- Hip abductors
- Hip abductors: continue their activity (decel pelv drop and stabilize pelvis), becoming isometric as continue to halt drop on CL side
What is happening at ____ from midstance to terminal stance?
- Foot intrinsics/ankle PF
- Foot intrinsics/PF: continue to eccentrically lengthen/eccentric control DF and develop PE, becoming isometric around 40% w/heel rise
What is happening at ____ from midstance to terminal stance?
-Hip abductors
Hip abductors- moves from isometric to concentric to elevate the pelvis in preparation of swing
What is happening at ____ from midstance to terminal stance?
-Adductor Longus
- Thought to have a role in pelvic rotation
What is happening at ____ from midstance to terminal stance?
- Iliopsoas
- Iliopsoas: eccentric control of hip extension w/spring-like loading to prep for swing phase
