|
Term
What people are effected more by posterior shear force? |
|
Definition
Elderly and those with pathology including autoimmune ds. |
|
|
Term
What causes Anterior Shear? |
|
Definition
Heel lift and the puss off of propulsion. This imparts a linear acceleration of center of gravity of the trunk in a forward direction. |
|
|
Term
What prevents posterior movement of the foot during propulsion? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
When is Anterior Shear at it's peak? |
|
Definition
When the opposite foot makes contact with the ground. |
|
|
Term
What cause the Anterior Shear? |
|
Definition
Soft tissue will be displaced anteriorly to the Met Heads. |
|
|
Term
What is one pathology that would shift the Fat Pad under the ball of the foot? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
What does the wasting or further anterior displacement of the Fat Pad cause? |
|
Definition
"ST Trauma, Hermorrhage, Fibrosis, and Hyperkeratiotic Lesions or even Ulcerration." |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
When forces produce a turning effect (observed as a moment.) |
|
|
Term
When does Torque develop between the ground and the foot? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
What specifically causes Troque to develop during the Stance Phase of Gait? |
|
Definition
Internal/External rotation of the Leg. |
|
|
Term
At what point in gait is the leg internally rotated? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
What causes the STJ to pronate during Heel Strike? |
|
Definition
Internal rotation of the Tibia and the fact that the ground friction stops the foot from rotating with the Tibia. |
|
|
Term
What is the Torque converter? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
T/F The STJ dissipates all of the Torque form the Tibia? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
What prevents the foot from rotating with the Tibia? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
What does the initial internal torque (that the STJ can't dissipate) at early Contact Period do? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
When is Torque virtually eliminated? |
|
