Study Notes
Gait Analysis and Deviations Summary
- Gait analysis involves quantitative and qualitative measurements and visual analysis.
- Walking phases include stance (WB) and swing (NWB), each with sub-phases.
- Efficient gait characteristics include minimal side-to-side motion, maximal forward motion, and a sinusoidal curve of the center of gravity.
- Running phases involve stance (WB) and swing (NWB), with different joint movements and ground reaction forces.
- Running gait differs from walking gait in flight phase, limb support, and ground reaction forces.
- Interventions for gait deviations include guided cue words, strength training, flexibility exercises, and different shoes.
- Gait deviations and malalignments include retroversion (toe out), anteversion (toe in), shortened step length, and inadequate push off and pull.
- Asymmetrical arm swing can be caused by upper extremity injury, leg length discrepancies, or spine dysfunction.
- Excessive and inadequate plantar flexion at the ankle can be caused by various pathologies and injuries.
- Assessing the lumbo-pelvic-hip complex is important in cases of unequal hip/pelvic positions.
- Leg stiffness can be caused by bony or soft tissue injuries, affecting efficiency and ground reaction forces.
- Excessive and inadequate knee flexion at initial contact during running can be caused by various pathologies and injuries.
Hip Assessment and Pathologies
- Functional assessment includes angle of torsion and angle of inclination to assess hip alignment
- Palpation involves locating key structures in the hip including muscles and bony landmarks
- Joint and muscle function assessment includes range of motion and manual muscle testing for various hip movements
- Various tests such as Thomas Test, FADIR, and Ober’s test are used to assess hip flexibility and identify specific pathologies
- Common pathologies include piriformis syndrome, muscle strains, quad contusion, and risk of heterotopic ossification
- Other pathologies involve acetabulum and femoral deformities, SCFE, Legg-Calve-Perthes Disease, CAM deformity, and femoral neck stress fractures
- Degenerative conditions such as arthritis, osteochondral dessicans, avascular necrosis, and hip OA are also common in the hip
- Labral tears can occur due to various factors including hip dislocations, repeated subluxations, and femoral acetabular impingement
- Athletic pubalgia, snapping hip syndrome, bursitis, hip dislocation, and femoral fractures are also part of hip pathologies
- Clinical evaluation includes tools such as plumb lines, goniometer, and inclinometer to assess posture and muscle balance
- Postural deviations are categorized as mild, moderate, or severe, and are assessed in standing, sitting, and dynamic positions
- Muscle imbalances can be caused by nerve issues, pain, or joint problems, and involve both postural and phasic muscles
