Pathokines Review-Gait Kinematics

What is the external moment at the ankle (sagittal plane) at heel strike?

What is the internal moment at the ankle (sagittal plane) at heel strike?

T or F: The dorsiflexors act concentrically to control plantar flexion following heel strike.

Which muscles are most active throughout loading response?

Which muscles are most important to stabilize the hip in the frontal plane during stance phase?

What is the internal torque of the knee (saggital plane) in terminal swing?

Approximately what amount of knee flexion do you normally have by the end of pre-swing?

What is the external moment at the knee (sagittal plane) at initial contact?

Why might someone hyperextend their knee in stance phase of gait?

T or F: the hip flexors are most active during terminal stance

T or F: the hip extensors are most active during mid stance

At what point in the gait cycle is the largest internal torque at the hip?

What role do the peroneal muscles play in gait?

What is the internal torque of the ankle (frontal plane) during loading response?

What is the internal torque of the hip (frontal plane) during stance?
