Normal Human Gait Flashcards
What 3 accomplishments occur during IC and LR?
forward progression
stability
shock absorption
what 2 accomplishments occur during MSt and TSt
stability and forward progression
What is the critical event(s) that occurs during:
- IC
heel first contact
What is the critical event(s) that occurs during:
- LR
hip stability
controlled knee flexion and ankle PF
Heel rocker
What is the critical event(s) that occurs during:
- MSt
controlled tibial advacement
ankle rocker
What is the critical event(s) that occurs during:
- TSt
controlled ankle DF w/ heel rise of the trailing limb
forefoot rocker
what 2 accomplishments occur during all swing phase?
foot clearance and limb advancement
What is the critical event(s) that occurs during:
- PSw
passive knee flexion and PF
period of relaxation
What is the critical event(s) that occurs during:
- ISw
hip flexion helps w/ knee flexion
What is the critical event(s) that occurs during:
- MSw
further hip flexion and ankle to neutral
What is the critical event(s) that occurs during:
- TSw
knee extension to neutral to prepare for IC
what joint position should the hip be at IC
20-30 deg flexion
5 deg pelvic rotation and anterior tilt
where should the GRF be at the hip during IC?
what moment does it create?
anterior
flexion moment
what key muscles are active at the hip during IC?
Why?
hip extensors - to counterbalance the flexion moment from the GRF
what is the joint position of the hip during LR
20 deg flexion
5 deg pelvis forward rotation and anterior tilt
where is the GRF at the hip during LR
thru the joint
what key muscles are active at the hip during LR?
why?
extensors reduce activity - GRF is no longer anterior to hip
ABD activity increases - allow for stabilization of the pelvis as the body accepts load
what position is the hip during MSt
moves from neutral to extension
pelvis is neutral
where is the GRF at the hip during MSt
posterior/thru and medial
what muscles are active at the hip during MSt?
extensors are quiet - GRF thru the joint
isometric contraction of hip ABD
what type of stability is achieved at the hip during MSt
M-L stability
what joint position is the hip in during TSt
10-20 deg EXTENSION
5 deg pelvic backward rotation
where is the GRF at the hip during TSt
thru the joint
what muscles are active at the hip during TSt?
none
what is the joint position of the hip in PSw
20 deg ext to 10 deg ext
where is the GRF at the hip during PSw
posterior - creating an extension moment
what muscles are active at the hip during PSw
iliacus and hip ABD
what is the joint position of the hip at ISw
15-20 deg flexion
5 deg pelvic backward rotation
what muscles are active at the hip during ISw
concentric hip flexor
where is the GRF for any joint during swing phase?
no GRF –> in swing phase
where is the joint position of the hip during MSw
25-30 deg flexion
neutral pelvis
what muscles are active at the hip during MSw
concentric hip flexor
what is the joint position of the hip during TSw
20-30 deg flexion
5 deg pelvic forward rotation
