MIDSTANCE Flashcards

1
Q

during midstance, the OMTJ is _____? due too? causes?

A

pronated

vertical GRFs pushing upward on forefoot

dorsiflexion and abduction of the forefoot and pronation around the OMTJ

Q

at the end of contact period, the LMTJ axis supinated or pronated?

what else happens during this motion?

A

supinated due to STJ pronation

now STJ is supinating and LMTJ is pronating

when the calcaneus inverts, the forefoot will evert about the LMTJ axis until forefoot locks

because the OMTJ axis is pronated and LMTJ is pronating the foot is now charging from a mobile adapter during contact period to a rigid lever in anticipation of propulsion

Q

knee is flexed during what period? extend?

A

end of contact period

start of midstance and continues throughout midstance to help lift body weight and also decreases vertical GRFs

Q

where do we see the center of gravity?

2 planes

A

transverse plane - shifts it medial to lateral as STJ supinates

sagittal plane - moved anteriorly with controlled forward fall

Q

what happens to the opposite limb as we progress forward on the stance phase limb?
