what are the types of ground reactive forces
vertical and linear shear forces
what direction does the center of gravity pass relative to the foot
in a linear progression above the foot
where does the center of gravity begin in contact phase
behind the foot
what are the two peaks of the center of gravity or vertical ground reactive forces
at the end of contact when the body weight is supported by one foot
midway through propulsion when all weight is being supported by the ball of one foot
what does the first peak in vertical ground reactive force result from
the elevation of the center of body weight being lifted over the weight bearing limb
what does the second peak in the vertical ground reactive force result from
kinetic energy from the falling trunk and muscle function that elevates the heel and provides a push to the center of gravity during propulsion
where do these forces peak at
above normal body weight
what is shear force
when on part slides over another
when during gate do we see shear forces
during contact and propulsion
what king of shearing does heel strike cause
posterior shearing
what is posterior shear a result of
the moving foot being suddenly stopped by friction from the ground as contact is made
when is soft tissue better able to distribute and absorb posterior shear
when it is thicker
what causes anterior shear
heel lift and the push off of propulsion
when does anterior shear make its peak
when the other foot contacts the ground
what is the result of wasting or displacement of the fat pad
soft tissue trauma
hemorrhage
fibrosis
hyperkeratotic lesions
or even ulcers
when does torque develop in gait
between ground and foot during stance phase
what does internal rotation of the tibia due to the foot when it hits the ground
causes the STJ to pronate
what is one of the jobs of the STJ
torque converter
what happens to torque by the end of contact period
its eventually eliminated
what causes second torque to develop in the foot
external rotation of the tibia starting in midstance
when does second torque reach its peak
just prior to heel lift
what produces lateral shear
side to side motion of the trunk
when does lateral shear peak
at end of contact and also again during propulsion
what are two primary factors in stability
osseous structure and muscle activity
what causes abnormal shearing
abnormal subtalar joint pronation leads to hypermobility and shoe gear fixes soft tissue against bones
what is the medial column
cuneiforms and 1-3 metatarsals
what is the lateral column
4th and 5th metatarsals
what is the primary role of the medial column
shock absorption
what is the primary role of the lateral column
balance
what is planal dominance
if axis of a joint is deviated to become more perpendicular to a certain body plane then motion in that plane will be the dominant plane
where is the planar dominance if the OMTJ is more vertically oriented
in the transverse plane
what motion will be seen in the OMTJ is more vertically oriented
more abduction and adduction with pronation and supination around the OMTJ
if STJ is more vertically oriented where will planar dominance be
in the transverse plane
what are the effects if the STJ gets more vertically oriented
ankle, knee, and hip will have to compensate for the deviation of the axis
if the STJ is more horizontally oriented where will planar dominance be
in the frontal plane
what motion will be seen if the STJ is more horizontally oriented
more inversion and eversion
what are the affects of frontal planar dominance at the STJ
more angulation between joints and greater instability which will lead to hypermobility and subluxation
where will compensation and pathology be seen if the STJ is more horizontally oriented
in the foot
what happens if the STJ is deviated more medially in the transverse plane
more pronation
what happens if the STJ is deviated more laterally in the transverse plane
more supination
what things lead to lateral instability
short lateral column
forefoot valgus
what muscles may be part of the plantar fascia
abductor hallucis and abductor digiti minimi
what is the windlass mechanism
when we dorsiflex the digits we see an increase in height of the medial arch as the medial slip of the central band tightens plantarflexing the first metatarsal we also see inversion of the calcaneus
what is a result of the windlass mechanism
passive supination
what was elftmans idea about MTJ
each of the components have two axis
what was elftmans idea about pronation of the MTJ
that the TN-1 axis lines up with the CC-1 axis resulting in an unlocked MTJ
what was elftmans idea about supination of the MTJ
each of the four axis contribute movement to align the foot and lock it at any given point during supination
what was roots idea about the locking position of the MTJ
that the plantar surface of the forefoot is perpendicular to a vertical bisection of the calcaneus
what was husons idea about the MTJ
that the MTJ actually consists of the navicular and cuboid rotating around the talus and calcaneus
what was nesters and finlows idea about the MTJ
navicular and cuboid move as a single unit
what is the axis of motion for the lesser MPJ's
same as the first MPJ
how much dorsiflexion do we need at the lesser MPJ's
62 degrees +/- 10 degrees
how do we get 62 degrees in the lesser MPJ's
metatarsals must plantarflex
why do we need less dorsi from the lesser MPJ's
because they lift off the ground before the 1st MPJ
what happens when the lesser digits are dorsiflexed
windlass mechanism and the STJ is supinated
what happens when forefoot varus in uncompensated
excessive weight is born on the lateral forefoot
what happens when forefoot varus is compensated
pronation into propulsion
what happens when forefoot varus is partially compensated
some eversion but not enough to equalize ground reactive forces on the forefoot
what is equinas
foot cannot dorsiflex the 10 degrees needed at midstance in relation to the tibia
what things will you see with equinas
pronation at heel contact
patient walk with knee flexed to relieve tension on gastrco
early heel off in midstance
where do we see compensation for forefoot valgus at
MTJ by dorsiflexing the first ray
STJ by supinating the STJ or both
If MTJ compensation for forefoot valgus what do we see
lesions sub 2
if STJ compensation for forefoot valgus what do we see
lesions sub 1 and 5
what is a plantarflexed first ray
plane of met heads 1 and 5 everted to rearfoot first ray plantar flexed in relation to met heads 2-5
what is compensation for plantarflexed first ray
STJ Supination
what do we see with plantarflexed first ray
lesions under first and fifth metatarsal heads
what might a plantarflexed first ray be due to
contracture state of peroneus longus or tight medial slips of plantar fascia
what causes medial loading
external forces
widened base of gait for heavy lifting
obesity
tibial or heel valgus
