    Gait Analysis

    Gait Analysis

    Definition:
    Gait is described as a translatory progression of
    the body as a whole produced by coordinated,
    rotatory movements of body segments.

    Normal gait is:


    Rhythmic and is characterized by
    alternating propulsive and retropulsive
    movement of the lower extremities
    essentially to support and carry along the
    HAT.

    = 75% of body

    Head + Arm = 25% of body

    = 50% of body

    Gait requires:
    Coordination
    Balance
    Intact kinesthetic

    and Propioceptive
    Sensation and
    Integrity of joints
    and muscles

    Walking is the result of Cyclic series if


    movement. And a Gait cycle is
    considered as its most fundamantal
    unit.
    Gait Cycle:
    A gait cycle includes the activities that
    occur from the point of initial contact
    of one lower extremity to the point at
    which the same extremity contacts
    the ground again.

    Phases of Gait Cycle:


    In a Gait Cycle one extremity passes
    through two phases
    1.Stance Phase
    2.Swing Phase

    Stance Phase:
    It begins at the instant when one extremity
    contacts the ground( Heel Strike) and
    continues as long as some portion of the foot
    is in contact with the ground (Toe Off). 60%

    Swing Phase;
    It begins as soon as the toe of one extremity
    leaves the ground (Toe Off) and ceases just
    before the same extremity contacts the
    ground or supporting surface (Heel Strike).
    40%

    Stance Phase

    Swing Phase

    Double-Limb Support:
    It is defines as the period in which some
    portion of the feet of both the extremities are
    in contact with the supporting surface at the
    same time.
