PT 711 Gait 2

When in the gait cycle (walking) is our CoM at its highest point?

• Initial Contact

• Loading Response

• Midstance

• Terminal Stance

How much hip hyper-extension ROM is needed for gait, and when does it hit its peak in the gait cycle?

• 10 deg; terminal stance

• 10 deg; midstance

• 0 deg; terminal stance

• 10 deg; midstance

How much knee flexion is required during gait, and when during the gait cycle does peak flexion occur?

• 45 deg; loading response

• 60 deg; midstance

• 45 deg; pre-swing

• 60 deg; mid-swing

How much dorsiflexion is required for normal gait and when does it occur in the gait cycle?

• 0 deg; midstance

• 10 deg; midstance

• 10 deg; heel off

• 20 deg; heel off

If someone is lacking hip hyperextension, what compensations would you expect to occur at the knee?

• More extension in terminal stance

• More flexion in terminal stance

• More extension at initial contact

• More flexion at initial contact

In the frontal plane, the pelvis slightly drops on the swing limb. How does this affect that hip's frontal plane position?

• Does not affect it

• Increased adduction

• Increased abduction

• Increased flexion
