Gait deviations
One of the course's objectives is for students to identify and state
possible reasons
for certain common gait deviations:
foot slap
foot flat contact
excessive toe-out during stance
knee hyperextension in stance
inadequate knee flexion in swing
forward trunk lean
backward trunk lean
lateral trunk lean
asymmetrical step length
(decreased stance phase)
