2 Phases of Gait Cycle:

A
    1. Stance
      * Time reference foot is on GROUND
      * 60^

Tips for Gait Analysis

A
  • Dynamic process
  • think about direction things are moving, NOT STATIC POS.
  • Be clear w/ eccentric vs. concentric
    • ​gait is mostly eccentric ****
  • Recognize that in stance we are talking Closed Chain and in swing we are talking Open Chain

47
Q

NOTE: Subtalar joint

Motion in Stance

A
  • motion in Stance allows foot to adapt to varied surfs.
  • Transfers tibial rotation to the foot in the form of inversion/eversion
48
Q

Subtalar joint

Eversion (Closed Chain)

A
  • JUST LIKE PRONATION
    • ​tibia medially rotates
    • talus add’s
    • calcaneus everts
    • usually causes knee flex
49
Q

Subtalar Joint

Inversion (Closed Chain)

A
  • Just like SUPINATION
    • tibia laterally rotates
    • talus ABD’s
    • calcaneus inverts
  • Usually causes Knee Extension
  • rigid foot
50
Q

Subtalar Joint

Eversion

A

mostly passive

unlocks midtarsal jt to allow flexible forefoot to adapt to contact surf.

after IC and peaks early Midstance

51
Q

Subtalar Joint

Inversion (forefoot rigid and locked)

A
  • begins TSw
  • Peaks first in IC
  • peaks again PSw
  • neutral in MSw
52
Q

Midtarsal or “arches”

A
  • Arch flattens
    • Midstance w/ pronation
  • Arch restored
    • as heel rises/PSw w/ supination
53

61
Q

Key Points for Swing Phase Muscular Control

A
  • NO EXT moments bc Open Chain
  • Primary role of mm’s of LE
    • control momentum of swinging limb
      • ​mostly eccentric
    • maintain clearance of foot
  • Magnitude of mm contract depends on gait speed
  • Secondary role of LE mm’s is to control limb in all planes and pos. properly for NEXT IC and WBing

A

Tib ant

EDL + peroneus

EHL

66
Q

Dorsiflexors

Biphasic

A
  • begins IC to LR
    • eccentric control of foot slapping down
  • peaks again PSw to MSw
    • concentric to clear foot
67
Q

DF’s

EHL

*mechanical advantage bc easier to contract FIRST

A
  • Initiates DF act. in PSw
68
Q

DF’s

Tib Ant

A
  • produces greatest amt of torque
69
Q

PF’s and control of Talocrural joint

A
  • Soleus + Gastroc == 93% PF torque
    • soleus first THEN gastroc @ end of LR
      • ​eccentric
    • rises thru Midstance
    • declines in PSw bc DFs want to pull UP foot so PFs relax
70
Q

Other PF’s

A

FHL, FDL, FL, FB, TP

*FHL prod’s most torque of these 5
