Q

What is double support, when does it occur, and for how much of the gait cycle does it occur?

A
  • Double support is when two feet are in contact with the floor at the same time
  • It happens at (R) heel off/(L) heel strike and (R) toe off/(L) foot flat
  • 10% of the gait cycle

Study These Flashcards
A

25
Which type of abnormal gait is characterized by excessive lumbar lordosis, anterior pelvic tilt, hip and knee flexion, ankle plantar flexion, and exaggerated arm swing?
Crouch Gait
26
O, I, A, & N of the Upper Trapezius
O: Occipital Bone, Nuchal Ligament on Upper Cervical Spinous Processes I: Outer Third of Clavical, Acromion Process A: Scapular Elevation & Upward Rotation N: Spinal Accessory (Cranial Nerve 11) C3, C4
27
O, I, A, & N of the Middle Trapezius
``` O: Spinous Processes of C7-T3 I: Scapular Spine A: Scapular Retraction N: Spinal Accessory (Cranial Nerve 11) C3, C4 ```
28
O, I, A, & N of the Lower Trapezius
``` O: Spinous Processes of Middle & Lower Vertebrae I: Base of Scapular Spine A: Scapular Depression & Upward Rotation N: Spinal Accessory (Cranial Nerve 11) C3, C4 ```
29
O, I, A, & N of the Levator Scapula
O: Transverse Process of C1-C4 I: Vertebral Border of Scapula between the Superior Angle & Spine A: Scapular Elevation & Downward Rotation N: 3rd & 4th Cervical Nerve & Dorsal Scapular Nerve C5
30
What are the attachment points for the rotator cuff muscles?
The greater and lesser tubercles of the humerus
31
Which muscles attach to the greater tubercle of the humerus?
The Supraspinatus, Infraspinatus, and Teres Minor
32
Which muscles attach to the lesser tubercle of the humerus?
The Subscapularis
33
Where is the Coracohumeral Ligament located, what does it attach to, and what does it do?
- The superior aspect of the shoulder - Attaches from the lateral side of the coracoid process to the medial side of the greater tubercle - It strengthens the upper part of the joint capsule
34
Where is the Glenohumeral Ligament located and what does it do?
- The anterior aspect of the shoulder | - Reinforces the anterior portion of the capsule
35
What is the Glenoid Labrum and what does it do?
- It is fibrous tissue surrounding the glenoid fossa | - It deepens the articular cavity
36
What is another name for the Thoracolumbar Fascia, what is it, what does it attach to, and what does it do?
- AKA Lumbar Aponeurosis - It is a superficial fibrous sheet - It attaches to the spinous processes of the lower thoracic and lumbar vertebra, supraspinal ligament, and the posterior part of the iliac crest - It provides a broad attachment for the latissimus dorsi
37
What is the Rotator Cuff and what does it do?
- It is a tendinous band formed by the insertions of the Supraspinatus, Infraspinatus, Teres Minor, and Subscapularis - These muscles help keep the head of the humerus "rotating" against the glenoid fossa by stabilizing/depressing the humerus in the glenoid
38
How far can the Glenohumeral Joint flex before the scapula starts to move with it?
120 Degrees
39
How far can the Glenohumeral Joint abduct before the scapula starts to move with it?
120 Degrees
