What are the swing phase subdivisions?
Answers:
In My Teapot
1. Initial swing: from lift of extremity off ground to maximum knee flexion
2. Midswing: from immediately following knee flexion to vertical tibia position
3. Terminal swing: from vertical tibia position just prior to initial contact.
Swing phase makes up 40% of the gait cycle.
