[Changes in the pressure borne by the hip during the phase of unilateral support in locomotion. II].
Adopting the methodology that we have just described, our study completes that of Pauwels in that we take into consideration the pressures sustained by the hip not only in the frontal plane but also in the horizontal and sagittal planes during the phase of unilateral weightbearing when walking. Thanks to the work of Braune and Fischer (1) the forces exerted on the hip are now well known and are represented by the weight of the body, the muscular forces and the dynamic forces generated by walking. From these data, we have been able to quantify the pressures sustained by the hip in each plane during the different phases of unilateral weightbearing when walking (weightbearing on heel, sole and toes).
