Abstract：
:Dynamic balance in the frontal plane requires active control, which is accomplished largely through control of mediolateral foot placement. Individuals without mobility impairments have the ability to compensate for variability in foot-placement to maintain their balance; however, it is unknown how individuals respond to unexpected mediolateral perturbations to their foot placement that alter their balance control. The purpose of this study was to identify the biomechanical responses of individuals without mobility impairments to medial and lateral foot-placement perturbations during walking. Three-dimensional body segment kinematic and ground reaction force data were collected from 15 participants at 1.0 m/s and their self-selected speed on an instrumented treadmill. Dynamic balance was assessed by analyzing whole-body angular momentum in the frontal plane. We hypothesized that participants would respond to the perturbations with a combination of a lateral ankle strategy, hip adduction strategy and/or ankle push-off strategy to restore their balance. Overall, the medial perturbations adversely affected dynamic balance while lateral perturbations had little effect. Individuals responded to medial (lateral) perturbations with an increased (decreased) ankle inversion moment, which correlated to lateral (medial) shifts in their foot center of pressure. In addition, individuals responded to medial (lateral) perturbations with a decreased (slightly decreased) hip abduction moment. Contrary to our hypothesis, we did not observe an ankle push-off moment response but rather, a small response in the opposite direction. These results highlight the response of individuals without mobility impairments to unexpected foot-placement perturbations and provide a basis of comparison for those with impaired balance control.
