Movement Science Final Flashcards
Task Related Determinants of Sit-to-stand
- generate anterior momentum of head, arms, and trunk (INITIATION)
- control anterior displacement of whole body COM over new base of support (EXECUTION)
- generate vertical momentum to raise COM (EXECUTION)
- arrest forward and vertical momentum of whole-body COM (TERMINATION)
Task sequence
- initial conditions
- preparation
- initiation
- execution
- termination
- outcome
Task-related determinants of forward reach
- generate anterior momentum of the head, arms, and trunk COM
- generate momentum of one UE to elevate it forward
- control the whole-body COM forward momentum adjustments
- coordinate COM momentum for each trunk, arm, and head to reach target
Task-related determinants of supine to stand
- generate momentum to displace the whole-body COM over the feet
- orient the head, arms, and trunk segments to place whole-body COM over feet
- establish new base of support with feet on floor
- generate vertical momentum to raise whole-body COM
- arrest forward and vertical momentum of whole-body COM
Critical events of initial contact
heel contact
critical events of loading response
controlled knee flexion
heel rocker
hip & pelvic stability (peak demand on hip abductors)
critical events of midstance
hip and pelvic stability
ankle rocker (controlled tibial advancement)
critical events of terminal stance
forefoot rocker (60° extension of 1st MTP joint)
hip extension 10°
critical events of pre-swing
rapid ankle plantarflexion (biggest power generator of gait!!)
passive knee flexion
critical events of initial swing
peak knee flexion 60° (most knee flexion is passive, coming from hip and ankle PF)
critical events of mid-swing
peak hip flexion 30° (2nd biggest power generator of gait!!)
ankle dorsiflexion to neutral
