Canine hip extension range during gait.
Assessment of canine gait is frequently used by veterinary clinicians to establish the presence of orthopaedic pain. As up to 30% of canine orthopaedic conditions affect the pelvic limb, knowledge of pelvic limb biomechanics during gait is very important. Previous studies have investigated the biomechanics at the tarsus and stifle, but little information is available regarding hip motion during...
متن کاملMathematical modelling of stress in the hip during gait.
A mathematical model is developed for calculating the contact stress distribution in the hip for a known resultant hip force and characteristic geometrical parameters. Using a relatively simple single nonlinear algebraic equation, the model can be readily applied in clinical practice to estimate the stress distribution in the most frequent body positions of everyday activities. This is demonstr...
متن کاملHip- and trunk-muscle activation patterns during perturbed gait.
CONTEXT Selected muscles in the kinetic chain may help explain the body's ability to avert injury during unexpected perturbation. OBJECTIVE To determine the activation of the ipsilateral rectus femoris (RF), gluteus maximus (MA), gluteus medius (ME), and contralateral external obliques (EO) during normal and perturbed gait. DESIGN Single-factor, repeated measures. SETTING University resea...
متن کاملDo orthotic walkers affect knee and hip function during gait?
BACKGROUND AND AIM Much previous research on orthotic walkers has focussed on their ability to offload structures in the foot and ankle; however, little is known about their effects on lower limb mechanics. This study aimed to determine effects of two orthotic walkers on the biomechanics of the knee and hip joints compared to standardised footwear. TECHNIQUE A total of 10 healthy participants...
متن کاملMuscular contributions to hip and knee extension during the single limb stance phase of normal gait: a framework for investigating the causes of crouch gait.
Crouch gait, a troublesome movement abnormality among persons with cerebral palsy, is characterized by excessive flexion of the hips and knees during stance. Treatment of crouch gait is challenging, at present, because the factors that contribute to hip and knee extension during normal gait are not well understood, and because the potential of individual muscles to produce flexion or extension ...
