  • 30%​ ​in​ ​swing​ ​phase
  • 30%​ ​where​ ​there​ ​is​ ​no​ ​contact​ ​with​ ​the​ ​ground

A
  • Antalgic​ ​=​ ​pain
  • Gait​ ​that​ ​has​ ​been​ ​changed​ ​because​ ​of​ ​pain
  • Limping​ ​due​ ​to​ ​pain
  • Will make their own accommodations
54
Q

What happens to gait when people limp due to pain?

A
  • Try​ ​to​ ​avoid​ ​weight​ ​bearing
  • ​try​ ​to​ ​cut​ ​down​ ​stance​ ​phase​ ​from​ ​60%​ ​to​ ​as​ ​little​ ​as
    possible​ ​(​very​ ​short​ ​stance​ ​phase​ ​on​ ​painful​ ​side​,​ ​very​ ​long​ ​stance​ ​phase​ ​on uninjured​ ​stance)
  • People​ ​try​ ​to​ ​avoid​ ​that​ ​by​ ​taking​ ​big​ ​steps

62
Q

Where does leg length start and end?

A

starts​ ​at​ ​iliac​ ​crest​ ​and​ ​goes​ ​down​ ​to​ ​feet

63
Q

What is considered normal in variation of leg length?

A
  • anything under a inch

- body can adapt without causing problems

64
Q

Describe anatomical causes of leg length variation.

A

One​ ​of​ ​the​ ​bones​ ​in​ ​the​ ​leg​ ​is​ ​physically​ ​longer​ ​than​ ​the​ ​same​ ​bone on​ ​the​ ​other​ ​side

65
Q

Describe functional causes of leg length variation and give an example.

A
  • Created​ ​by​ ​the​ ​body,​ ​generally​ ​the​ ​muscles
  • Most​ ​muscles​ ​that​ ​do​ ​this​ ​is​ ​from​ ​the​ ​knees​ ​to​ ​the​ ​rib cage
  • Not​ ​permanent:​ ​reduce​ ​spasm​ ​=​ ​reduce​ ​discrepancy
  • Ex.​ ​injury​ ​in​ ​hip,​ ​spasm​ ​muscles​ ​can​ ​pull​ ​bones,​ ​make​ ​them​ ​in​ ​a tighter​ ​position​ ​in​ ​a​ ​joint
66
Q

How do we check for leg length discrepancy?

A
  • Landmark​ ​on​ ​body

  • Check​ ​head​ ​of​ ​fibula​ ​
  • Check​ ​either​ ​malleolus​ (each​ ​is​ ​measuring​ ​top​ ​and​ ​bottom​ ​of​ ​bone)
67
Q

How can we tell if the leg length discrepancy is structural or functional?

A

need x-ray and physical measurements

68
Q

nothing

69
Q
