Heel strike detection using split force-plate treadmill.
A common source of error when detecting heel-strike moments utilizing split force-plate treadmills is unwillingly stepping on contra-lateral force-plate. In this study, we quantified this error when heel-strike was detected based on such erroneous data and compared three methods to investigate how well the heel-strikes and stride-intervals were detected with erroneous data. Eleven subjects walk...
متن کاملAdaptive gait responses to plantar heel pain.
Neuropathic foot ulcers in people with diabetes result from repetitive stress aggravated by a lack of protective sensation. Protective sensation causes individuals without this impairment to produce alterations in their gait in response to painful stimuli. This study evaluates the adaptive gait responses to pain in individuals with sensate feet. The gaits of 18 such control subjects were studie...
متن کاملSeven reasons to brake leg swing just before heel strike
When walking (at moderate or fast speeds) or running, humans apply a burst hip torque to start leg swing and then again, at the end of the swing phase, to brake and reverse motion of their swing leg prior to heel-strike. The resulting rearward rotation of the swing leg, so called swingleg retraction, is also observed in animal gaits. Why is this retraction a common feature of many walking and r...
متن کاملThe heel pad in plantar heel pain.
A study of heel-pad thickness and compressibility using lateral radiographs, loaded and unloaded by body-weight, was carried out on 70 patients with plantar heel pain and 200 normal subjects. The heel-pad thickness and the compressibility index (resistance to compression) were greater in the patients than in normal subjects and significantly increased with age. In normal subjects, the thickness...
متن کاملAccelerations due to impact at heel strike using below-knee prosthesis.
The acceleration in the sagittal plane of the prosthetic tube at heel strike in normal walking was measured in five healthy amputees with their definitive below-knee prosthesis, every subject using six different prosthetic feet, wearing sport shoes as well as leather shoes. The experiments were carried out in the rehabilitation centre "Het Roessingh", Enschede, The Netherlands. Maximum accelera...
