    Study Notes

    Gait Analysis and Postural Evaluation

    • Factors affecting posture: effusion, poor posture, repetitive activity, and soft-tissue imbalance
    • Inspection of posture includes history of MOI, body types, Janda's Lower Cross Syndrome, and postural types
    • Assessment methods for LBP include measuring leg-length discrepancy and palpation techniques
    • Muscles involved in LBP include erector spinae, multifidus, and gluteus medius/maximus
    • Common postural deviations include excessive pronation, supination, calcaneovalgus, calcaneovarus, genu recurvatum, genu valgum, and genu varum
    • Gait terminology encompasses step, step length, step width, stride, gait cadence, velocity, stride time, stride length, kinematics, and kinetics
    • Gait evaluation methods include quantitative measurements and qualitative visual analysis
    • The process of gait involves alternating between stance and swing phases, with specific characteristics for each phase
    • Efficient gait characteristics include minimal side-to-side motion, maximum forward motion, and a sinusoidal curve for center of gravity
    • Running phases involve stance and swing, with specific joint movements and triplanar ground reaction forces
    • Differences between running and walking gait include flight phase, ground reaction forces, and stance phase timing
    • Interventions for gait deviations include guided cue words, strength training, flexibility exercises, and different shoes
