Presentation Transcript

  1. Analysing the Upper & Lower Limb Movement Studies 2009-10 Mvt Studies 2009-10

  2. Mvt Studies 2009-10 Learning Outcomes • Describe the function of the upper limb (UL) • Use correct anatomical terminology to analyse an upper limb activity • Describe the relationship between mobility and stability with respect to the upper limb

  3. Mvt Studies 2009-10 Learning Outcomes • Discuss the functions of the lower limb (LL) • Identify the characteristics of normal gait • Begin to analyse movement of the lower limb using the correct terminology

  4. Mvt Studies 2009-10 Function of the Upper and Lower limbs In pairs list the functions of both the upper and lower limbs. What are the roles of the joints? Be prepared to feedback to the rest of the group.

  5. Function of the Upper Limb Mvt Studies 2009-10

  6. Mvt Studies 2009-10

  7. Mvt Studies 2009-10 Why is stability necessary for mobility?

  8. Mvt Studies 2009-10 Open v Closed Chain Movement Open Chain – free movement Closed Chain – hand fixed

  9. Classify the following Mvt Studies 2009-10

  10. Mvt Studies 2009-10

  11. Mvt Studies 2009-10

  12. Mvt Studies 2009-10 Task 1Reaching to pick something off a high shelf Analyse this task using the checklist.

  13. Mvt Studies 2009-10 Task 2Pick up a penny from the floor • Use your checklist

  14. Mvt Studies 2009-10 Task 3 • Working in pairs demonstrate to your partner an upper limb activity for them to analyse – then swap roles • Be prepared to analyse the movement for the rest of the class

  15. Mvt Studies 2009-10 Definition of Gait ‘human gait is a constant play between loss and recovery of equilibrium and therefore a series of narrowly escaped catastrophes.’ (Stiendler 1955)

  16. Gait Terminology Mvt Studies 2009-10

  17. Mvt Studies 2009-10 Gait Cycle Period of time during which a complete sequence of events takes place e.g. heel strike continuing until the same heel strikes the floor again. (Carr and Shepherd 2003)

  18. Mvt Studies 2009-10 Gait Cycle

  19. Mvt Studies 2009-10 Task 4 • Analyse the stance phase of gait Use your checklist • Be prepared to feedback to the rest of the group

  20. Mvt Studies 2009-10 Task 5 • Analyse the swing phase of gait Use your posture checklist • Be prepared to feedback to the rest of the group

  21. Mvt Studies 2009-10

  22. Mvt Studies 2009-10

  23. Mvt Studies 2009-10 Remember! Although we have concentrated on analysis of the LL, gait involves the co-ordination of movements of the whole body. Try walking without moving your trunk or upper limbs.

  24. Mvt Studies 2009-10 Task 6 • Analyse the lower limb during: • Single leg hop • Use your posture checklist What happens to the trunk during this movement?

  25. Mvt Studies 2009-10 Remember! The ability to balance is an integral part of both walking and sit ↔ st.

  26. Mvt Studies 2009-10 And don’t forget: Always analyse what you see, your models may move in very different ways.

  27. Mvt Studies 2009-10 Make sure you are happy the learning outcomes have been met
