Q

define cadence

A

steps / time - usually 90-120/min

25
define gait speed
rate of forward linear motion - distance/time
26
change of walking velocity over time
walking acceleration
27
step length
distance of step from R and L extremity
28
stride length
distance covered by same foot 1 stride length - 1 gait cycle
29
width of BOS
linear distance betw midpoint of heel and of other foot normal: 5-10 cm
30
normal value of degree of toe out
7-8 deg intersecting center of heel and 2nd toe
31
immature or mature gait wider BOS
immature
32
immature or mature gait adequate BOS
mature
33
immature or mature gait UE high or medium guard
immature
34
immature or mature gait UE produces reciprocal arm swing
mature
35
immature or mature gait flat foot at contact and pronated foot in WB
immature
36
immature or mature gait heel strike at contact and adequate arch in WB
mature
37
immature or mature gait variable step length
immature
38
immature or mature gait less variable step length
mature gait
39
immature or mature gait hip FABER and excess knee flex at swing
immature
40
immature or mature gait sufficient foot clearance at swing
mature
41
immature or mature gait knee hyperex throughout stance
immtaure
42
immature or mature gait knee in semi flex during midstance
mature
43
immature or mature gait increased cadence
immature
44
immature or mature gait normal cadence
mature
45
what are the determinants of gait
adjustments made by the body to keep COG displacement minimal optimize COG and reduce energy consumption
46
discuss vertical displacement of COG
lowest - heel strike and double support highest - during midstance
47
average lateral displacement of COG in gait
1.8-2 inches
48
average vertical displacement of COG in gait
1.8-3 inches during midstance
49
what are the six determinants of gait
pelvic rotation pelvic tilt knee flexion knee mechanism/interactions ankle and foot mechanism/interaction lateral pelvic motion
50
discuss pelvic rotation in gait
pelvis rotates forward and backward in transverse plane to prevent excessive drop of COG IR on stance of LE ER on wing of LE
51
discuss lateral pelvic tilt in gait
downward pelvic tilt on swing leg at z-axis during midswing to prevent excessive rise of COG adduction on stance
52
discuss knee flexion in gait
initial contact - knee is extended midstance - flexed at 15-20 deg; highest COG so mag flex to prevent COG rising and also for shock absorption and better energy use
53
discuss knee, ankle and foot mechanisms/interaction in gait during heel strike
heel strike - knee extended - ankle neutral = lengthening oof leg that reduces drop of COG
54
discuss knee, ankle and foot mechanisms/interaction in gait during toe off
toe off - ankle pflex - lenghtening of LE - reduces drop of COG
55
discuss knee, ankle and foot mechanisms/interaction in gait
if leg lengthens - ankle will adapt kaya neutral if leg shortens - ankle will pflex to stop shortening
56
discuss lateral pelvic motion in gait
results to physiologic valgus of knee = reduces BOS adduction on stance LE prevents excessive side-to-side movement of COG
57
describe the stance phase in stair gait
when you start to give BW to leading extremity pull up body and forward continuance 64%
58
describe the stair phase in stair gait
as foot clearance occurs and when foot placement occurs 36%
