    Study Notes

    • The pelvis must provide stability and mobility during gait.
    • It offers a stable base for the lower limb and HAT.
    • The pelvis must be stable enough to transfer weight and move the acetabulum.
    • In the sagittal plane, the pelvis remains relatively level.
    • Two cycles of sinusoidal motion occur with each step.
    • Companion tilting of the pelvis occurs to provide additional motion at the hip.
    • The amount of pelvic tilt depends on soft tissue mobility and walking speed.
    • Assuming normal soft tissue mobility, pelvic tilt increases with walking speed.
    • Anterior pelvic tilt accompanies hip extension during ambulation.
    • Pelvic tilting motions complement hip flexion and extension.
