Question 26

Question
Check all that are true:
Answer
  • As the swing leg advances, the pelvis rotates forward 5 degrees in the horizontal plane to increase the relative leg length. This strategy minimizes downward displacement of the COM.
  • Lateral pelvic tilt: At midstance the contralateral pelvis drops in the frontal plane to lower the body and thus minimize upward displacement of the COM.
  • The motion of the pelvis helps ‘smooth out’ gait so there is less up and down (vertical) motion.
  • Knee flexion during swing lengthens the length of the leg allowing the foot to clear the ground thus also increasing upward displacement of the COM.
  • During terminal stance, the lower extremity is elongated via ankle plantarflexion (i.e. heel rise).
  • For individuals with impaired balance, an increase in step width will decrease stability and sacrifice energy efficiency.
  • Lateral pelvic/hip motion: Reducing step width minimizes the medial-lateral displacement of the COM (i.e. during weight shifts).

Question 27

Question
What statements are TRUE
Answer
  • An individual dx with Parkinson's Disease will have a delayed activation of postural synergies.
  • Coactivation occurs when both the anterior and posterior synergy muscles Fire simultaneously.
  • An individual with a cerebellar lesion has difficult scaling amplitude
  • Hypermetric scaling problems occur do to LMN.
  • Individuals with a UMN that are engaged with dual tasks will have a decrease in postural sway.

Question 28

Question
Select all that are true for Static Balance
Answer
  • Being able to maintain one's COM within their BOS independently in a static position.
  • Can only be done in a seated position
  • Measure only anticipatory postural control.
  • Measures both anticipatory and adaptive postureal control
  • Clinical acceptance is being able to hold their balance for 15 sec .
  • Clinical acceptance is being able to hold their balance 30 sec.

Question 29

Question
Select what is TRUE for Dynamic balance
Answer
  • Refers to the individuals ability to maintain their COM over their BOS, or independently be able to recover when the COM approaches their limits of stability.
  • Is when an individual is unable to recover when the COM approaches their limits of stability.
  • Can be used to asses anticipatory and adaptive postural control
  • Is done is only standing
  • Can be done in both standing and seated

Question 30

Question
How is vertical displaement minimized?
Answer
  • Horizontal pelvic rotation: As the swing leg advances, the pelvis rotates forward 5 degrees in the horizontal plane to increase the relative leg length. This strategy minimizes downward displacement of the COM.
  • Lateral pelvic tilt: At midstance the contralateral pelvis drops in the frontal plane to lower the body and thus minimize upward displacement of the COM.
  • Knee flexion during stance and swing phase: Knee flexion during stance phase limits the maximum upward displacement of the COM. Knee flexion during swing shortens the length of the leg allowing the foot to clear the ground thus also minimizing upward displacement of the COM
  • Ankle rotation (dorsiflexion-plantarflexion): At heel contact the protruding calcaneous makes contact with the ground and functionally elongates the leg length. In addition, during terminal stance, the lower extremity is elongated via ankle plantarflexion (i.e. heel rise). Thus at both ends of stance phase downward displacement of the COM is minimized.

Question 31

Question
What compensation results in elevation of the ipsilateral of the swing phase to help clear the foot from the ground?
Answer
  • Circumduction
  • Hip-Hiking
  • Vaulting

Question 32

Question

Answer
  • Vaulting
  • Circumduction
  • Hip Hiking

Question 33

Question
What compensation is occurring when the affected limb swings out to the side rather than bringing it forward?,
Answer
  • Circumduction
  • Hip Hiking
  • Vaulting

Question 34

Question
What way does the trunk lean during compensation to allow for the swing limb to clear the floor?
Answer
  • Ipsilateral
  • Contralateral
  • Anterior
