Foot joint pressures during dynamic gait simulation
Methods 5 fresh cadaveric specimens were connected to a dynamic gait simulator. I-scan #6900 sensors® were calibrated and surgically inserted into the subtalar (ST), naviculocuneiform (NC) calcaneocuboid (CC), and talonavicular (TN) joints using a joint spreader. Each foot was walked multiple trials across a force platform for three conditions (normal, flatfoot, flatfoot-orthotic). The flatfoot...
متن کاملDistal foot segment joint coupling patterns during walking gait
Background Several surface based multi-segment foot models have been developed to investigate distal foot function during gait [1,2]. However, the majority of the models have not defined medial and lateral forefoot or midfoot segments. In addition very little, is currently known regarding the coupling of the distal foot segments [3,4]. The purpose of the current study, therefore, was to utilize...
متن کاملAdjacent Joint Kinematics After Ankle Arthrodesis During Cadaveric Gait Simulation.
BACKGROUND Arthrodesis is an effective and reliable treatment for end-stage ankle arthritis; however, many patients develop ipsilateral adjacent joint arthritis following surgery. The mechanism that drives adjacent joint arthritis remains uncertain. Cadaveric simulation permits direct investigation of the effects of both arthrodesis and movement strategy on adjacent joints during simulated walk...
متن کاملAcute effects of whole body vibration on foot sole sensitivity and plantar pressures during gait initiation
Background Sensory receptors in the skin of the foot sole show a sitespecific sensitivity to local pressures and vibrations [1] and provide feedback during foot loading activities. Impaired plantar feedback has been shown to affect plantar pressures and kinematics during gait [2-5]. The present study investigated the acute effects of whole body vibration on plantar sensitivity and foot loading ...
متن کاملMulti-Step Forward Dynamic Gait Simulation
A predictive forward-dynamic simulation of human gait would be extremely useful to many different researchers, and professionals. Metabolic efficiency is one of the defining characteristics of human gait. Forward-dynamic simulations of human gait can be used to calculate the muscle load profiles for a given walking pattern, which in turn can be used to estimate metabolic energy consumption. One...
