This chapter provides information on Temporal and Spatial gait deviations during gait
Step width is measured as the shortest distance from the center of the right heel to the center of the left heel.
Step width is narrower than normal
Step width is wider than normal
Step length is measured as the distance from the heel of one foot to the heel of the other foot
Step length is shorter than normal
Step length between the right and left sides is asymmetric
In this deviation, the toe-out angle is greater than 10°.
In this deviation, the toes are pointing towards the midline of the body.
Arm swing occurs passively during a gait cycle and does not require active muscular contraction
In this deviation, arm on one side swings more than the arm on the other side.
Stance time is the amount of time spent on a limb during its stance phase
Time spent on one limb during its stance phase is more than the other limb
