In an experiment on patients with Parkinson's disease, patients' gait data were collected, and joint angles over gait cycle were plotted below. Explain what are the major differences between PD patients and normal walking pattern. What would be your main interpretation of the walking deficit of PD patients, and in which way you would recommend them to correct these patterns?

The major differences consist of shuffling gait to decrease their chance of falling, decreased step length, more steps are needed to cover the same amount of ground. PD patients are also creating less force, and have a reduced push off force. Faster cadence, slower velocity , longer stance. reduce ankle plantar flexion & knee flexion & hip extension. all produce less force in push-off phase. I would recommend them to increase their general strength, to be active regularly. Start some weight lifting, and they need to increase the push off velocity. encouraged increase stride length, by opening ankle and hip ROM.
