Toe clearance variability during walking in young and elderly men.

Falls during walking are a major cause of injury and death in the elderly. From a falls perspective, a critical gait event is minimum toe clearance (MTC), as failure to achieve foot-ground clearance results in a trip and potentially a fall. MTC exhibits stride-to-stride variability, which must be minimised to avoid the occurrence of toe-ground contact events. Gait kinematics were acquired from ...

Exploring Toe Walking in a Bipedal Robot

The design and development of locomotory subsystems such as legs is a key issue in the broader topic of autonomous mobile systems. Simplification of substructures, sensing, actuation and control can aid to better understand the dynamics of legged locomotion and will make the implementation of legs in engineered systems more effective. This paper examines recent results in the development of toe...

The “Toe Walking Tool”: a novel method of assessing toe walking children

Background Idiopathic toe walking (ITW) can present in children above the age of three, and occurs in the absence of any medically diagnosed conditions. Identification of medical conditions that are associated with toe walking can be complex and a potentially daunting task for those that infrequently assess children. In order to facilitate entry for appropriate toe walking children into an ITW ...

Activity of the Femoral Muscles during Toe-gripping Action

[Purpose] In the present study, we investigated femoral muscle activity during toe-gripping, and the role of the femoral muscles in toe-gripping strength. [Subjects] Fourteen healthy young women were selected. [Methods] We measured the maximum voluntary contraction of the rectus femoris and long head of the biceps femoris muscles. We then calculated the percent integrated EMG (%IEMG) during the...
