Q

In walking gait, what are the two phases? Define them

A

Stance (65%) - Heel Strike to Toe Off
Swing (35%) - Toe Off to Heel Strike

27
Q

In walking gait, what are the 8 actions

A
  1. Heel strike
  2. Foot flat
  3. Heel rise
  4. Push-off
  5. Toe-off
  6. Acceleration
  7. Toe Clearance
  8. Deceleration
28
Q

What is the difference between stride and step length?

A

Stride length is the length from when an event occurs on one side, to when it reoccurs on the same side (right heel strike –> right strike off)

Step length is the length from when an event occurs on one side to when it reoccurs on the opposite side (right strike off –> left strike off)

29
Q

What is the role of the subtalar job during gait?

A

Shock absorbs

30
Q

What are the phases in running gait?

A

Stance (40%)
Float (15%)
Swing (30%)
Float (15%)

31
Q

Movements during pronation of the foot (e.g plantar flexion, abduction, inversion)

A

Dorsiflexion, Abduction, Eversion

32
Q

Movements during supination of the foot (e.g plantar flexion, abduction, inversion)

A

Plantarflexion, Adduction, Inversion

33
Q

What happens to the Plantar Fascia when toes are hyperextended

A

It shortens causing the arch of foot to rise

34
Q

Distribution of loads under the foot during stance

A

Heel (60%)
Midfoot (8%)
Forefoot (28%)
Toes (4%)

35
Q

Role of Nucleus Pulposus

A

Provides the intervertebral disc elasticity and compressibility

36
Q

How does the Nucleus Pulposus get nutrients?

A

Diffusion (no direct blood supply)

37
Q

What covers the Annulus Fibrosus?

A

Fibrocartilage

38
Q

Under compression, how much pressure can the Nucleus Pulposus and Annulus Fibrosus withstand?

A

Nucleus Pulposus - 1.5 times external load
Annulus Fibrosus - 0.5 times external load

39
Q

Compare male and female motions of the spine

A

Males: more ROM in flexion/extension
Females: more ROM in lateral flexion

40
Q

Where is the line of gravity in the body while standing

A

passes anteriorly to the centre of the fourth lumbar vertebrae

41
Q

How does the body maintain balance?

A

The line of gravity through the body creates a forward bending moment in the spine. The body then maintains balance by increasing core and spinal muscle activity

42
Q

What is sway?

A

Horizontal movement of the COG

43
Q

What is the sacral angle of the pelvis?

A

30 degrees

44
Q

How do you minimise pressure on the spine while sitting?

A

Lumbar support and leaning back

45
Q

What motions increase the load on the spine?

A

Bending forward or sitting

46
Q

If two objects are the same weight but vary in size, which one will create a greater load on the spine?

A

bigger size = greater load

47
Q

What type of fibre are found in motor neurons

A

Muscle Fibres

48
Q

What type of fibre are found in sensory neurons

A

Skin Fibres
Muscle Fibres
Tendon Fibres
Joint Fibres

49
Q

What type of neuron is commonly found in the posterior root of the nerve

A

Sensory

50
Q

What type of neuron is commonly found in the anterior root of the nerve

A

Motor

51
Q

What are peripheral nerves made up of?

A

Nerves
Connective Tissue
Blood Vessels

52
Q

What is the role of the myelin sheath in nerves

A

Increases the speed of conduction
Insulates and maintain the axon

53
Q

What is the Epineurium

A

Protects fascicles from external trauma
Maintains oxygen supply

54
Q

What is the Perineurium

A

Sheath surrounds each fascicle
Great mechanical strength
Specific biochemical barrier

55
Q

What is the Endoneurium

A

Protects nerve fibres
Composed of fibroblasts and collagen

56
Q

Are peripheral nerves vascularised

A

Yes

57
Q

In what direction do blood vessels run across the perineurium

A

Obliquely

58
Q

What is the order of the layers of connective tissue (outside to inside)

A
  1. Epineurium
  2. Perineurium
  3. Endoneurium
59
Q

Where does the spinal cord end in adults?

A

L1

60
Q

What vertebrae and areas of the body are affected by Brachial Plexus Palsy

A

C5-C6
Shoulders, Bicep, Brachioradialis

61
Q

What is Sciatica?

A

A nerve compression injury
Degenerative disk puts pressure on the piriformis, causing pain in the back of the leg

62
Q

What is Endomorphy

A

Lean <———-> Fat

63
Q

What is Mesomorphy

A

Slender <———–> Muscular

64
Q

What is Ectomorphy

A

Heavy <———–> Light
