| 1. | The bony architecture of the ankle joint is most stable in dorsiflexion.
|
| 2. | The subtalar joint contributes to 10 % of dorsiflexion of the ankle.
|
| 3. | The movements produced at this joint are dorsiflexion and plantarflexion of the foot.
|
| 4. | Pronation of the foot is a compound movement that combines eversion, and dorsiflexion.
|
| 5. | For example, when walking on the heels the ankle is described as being in dorsiflexion.
|
| 6. | Concentric back extension and eccentric dorsiflexion remained significantly less than preflight values on R + 7.
|
| 7. | The range of motion for dorsiflexion indicated in the literature varies from 12.2 to 18 degrees.
|
| 8. | Foot drop is a condition, that occurs when dorsiflexion is difficult for an individual who is walking.
|
| 9. | Essentially, the movements of tibialis anterior are dorsiflexion and weight bearing or not ( closed or open kinetic chain ).
|
| 10. | It is characterized by inability or impaired ability to raise the toes or raise the foot from the ankle ( dorsiflexion ).
