Deviation
Gait Cycle Cause Significance
Limited Flexion
Initial Contact / Loading Response
• Compensation for weak hip extensor muscle group
• Decreased shock absorption
Pre-swing • Weak hip flexor muscle group
• Diminished knee flexion in Swing
Mid-swing • Weak hip flexor muscle group
• Impaired motor control • Hip pain
• Poor foot clearance • Poor foot position for initial
contact
Excess Flexion
Initial Contact / Loading Response
• Spasticity / Contracture of hip flexor muscle group
• Compensation for excess knee flexion / ankle dorsiflexion
• Increased demand on knee and hip extensor muscle groups
• Decreased limb stability
Mid-swing • Compensation for diminished knee flexion / ankle dorsiflexion
• Helps clearance
Internal Rotation
Mid-stance • Increased femoral anteversion
• Compensation for external pelvic rotation
• Intoeing gait pattern • Impaired forward
progression • Disrupts patellofemoral
tracking External Rotation
Mid-stance • Diminished femoral anteversion
• Increased thigh girth • Compensation for knee /
ankle / foot pain
• Outtoeing gait pattern • Increased base of support • Decreased foot lever arm • Excess loading of medial
knee and ankle ligaments

Mid-swing • Compensation for weak hip flexor muscle group
• Helps clearance
Adduction Mid-stance • Adductor muscle group spasticity
• Secondary to weak hip abductor muscle group (contralateral pelvic drop)
• Apparent (combination of hip flexion and internal rotation)
• Decreased base of support • Decreased limb stability • Functional lengthening of
reference limb
Abduction Mid-stance • Compensation for long reference limb
• Increased base of support • Functional shortening of
reference limb Mid-swing • Compensation for long
reference limb • Compensation for weak
hip flexor muscle group
• Functional shortening of reference limb
