Angular joint parameters in the andalusian horse at walk, obtained by normal videography

摘要: Summary Angular parameters from both front and hind limb joints of 17 Andalusian purebred stallions at walk (velocity, 1.68±0.14 m/s; stride length, 1.84±0.14 m; frequency, 0.91±0.07 strides/s duration, 1.09±0.06 s) were recorded using normal computer-aided videography. Neither intraindividual (six strides) or interindividual variation coefficients (%) higher than 10% for the basic maximum minimum joint angle parameters. Only some shoulder high (arm=24.91%). These may be useful comparison with those other horses under different conditions (health, training, age, etc.). The instant maximal flexion during is also presented, beginning in mid-stance position right forelimb; around 10–15% all except shoulder, which showed highly irregular patterns (50.56%) (33.10%) variation. In conclusion, videography systems can analysis certain slower gaits, such as walking.
