1 A 501(c)(3) Not-For-Profit School Founded Incorporated 2003 Pedorthic Pre-certification Distance Learning Program For New Balance Team Members Level One Syllabus Welcome! Thank you for selecting The Robert M. Palmer, M.D. Institute of Biomechanics. We are looking forward to this opportunity to assist you with reaching your goals toward pedorthic education where helping people step by step is our mission. Course Description Our Pedorthic Pre-Certification Course is designed to teach the fundamentals of Pedorthics and prepare each student to successfully sit for the Pedorthic Certification Exam. This Level One, distance learning course uses multi-media and the internet allowing the student to choose when to study and eliminating travel expenses. Upon successful completion of this course, the student should understand and demonstrate basic knowledge in foot and ankle anatomy, biomechanics, and common foot pathologies. The student should be able to demonstrate the ability to properly fit shoes and pre-made foot orthoses. The course is divided into modules according to the subject matter covered. These modules are listed below and described in detail in the Level One Modules section of this document. Terminology Module Anatomy of the Foot and Ankle Module Biomechanics Module Gait Module Pathologies Module
2 Shoe Fitting Module Shoe Construction and Modification Module Pre-fabricated Foot Orthoses Module Basic Retail Shoe and Business Management Module The Online Classroom This online, distance learning course incorporates a variety of learning theory principles, offering opportunities to collaborate, cooperate, engage other students, and utilize multiple learning pathways. Students have online access to faculty, create e-portfolios, and participate in assessment activities. The online format presents the information through a variety of media including video lectures, PowerPoint slide presentations, and interactive learning programs. This allows the student to proceed at his or her own pace, repeat selected sections, or look up information for reference. The course includes the basic instructions students may need to access and navigate the lessons and material. Also, the instructor is available for assistance. Student Evaluation (Grading) Student performance will be evaluated based upon the quality and completion of the assignments and final exams within each module (subject). A final grade of 70% or greater is required to pass this course. The total grade is comprised of 20% in and 80% in Final Exams. Required Text, References, and Materials Broadband Internet Access PFA members receive a discount by purchasing directly through the Pedorthic Footwear Association on their website ( or by phoning Ext Please contact KimS@assocadmin.com if you have questions about your PFA book order.

6 Objectives Content Biomechanics & Gait Module Develop an understanding of basic biomechanics as it relates to foot function. Understand planes of motion Understand ideal foot function. Understand components of gait. The information in this module is presented in a video (flash) lecture as well as MPEG files supporting the (flash) lecture. This program is provided on the school website. 1) Using masking tape on the floor, measure out a distance of exactly twenty feet with ten feet to spare at the furthest distance from the starting line. 2) Ask five individuals to participate in a biomechanics and gait study. These individuals should consist of each of the following categories: normal male, normal female, geriatric of either gender, child of either gender, and an individual of either gender with an anatalgic gait. 3) Have each individual to begin by marching in place approximately 10 steps, one foot length prior to the beginning of the twenty feet. 4) While each individual is marching in place, observe and document if the foot appears rigid, semi-rigid, flexible, hypermobile, with ligament laxity or flaccid. 5) Can the participant march in place without loosing their balance? 6) Have the patient to stop marching and stand in this position. Observe for each participant their base of support (base of gait) and angle of gait. 7) Ask the participant to adjust their stance to what is normal or comfortable for them (also known as their relaxed stance position). Are their any changes to their base of support (base of gait) and angle of gait? 8) From this relaxed stance position, identify and document any suspected foot pathologies or abnormalities in stance. 9) Have the participant to walk at their normal walking pace past the twenty foot mark being careful to not allow the participant to slow down as they approach the end. 10) Identify and document if any of the following abnormalities are present for each participant: head tilt, shoulder tilt, one arm swinging more than its opposing arm, pelvic tilt or rotation, a potential inequality of limb length, circumduction, toe-drag etc. 11) Identify any suspected foot pathologies or abnormalities during gait for each segment of the foot in regards to the forefoot, midfoot and rearfoot. All analysis should include but not limited to: Forefoot: excessive forefoot abduction or adduction, metatarsus adductus, bunions, hallux rigidus or hallux limitus, hammertoes etc. Midfoot: Midfoot subluxation (potential Charcot), navicular protrusion, navicular drop or medial navicular migration, pes planus (collapsed arch) or pes cavus (high arch), dorsal exostosis (bony prominence) etc. Rearfoot: Excessive heel inversion/eversion, fat pad displacement
7 medially/laterally, early heel off, abductory twist, limited ankle dorsiflexion, Haglunds deformity, etc. 12) the results to your instructor. If you have the capability, send a video of your study.
