24
Q

Hyper extension

A

To extend beyond the normal range of motion

25
Extension
Bending that increases the angle between segments
26
Flexion
Bending that decreases the angle between segments
27
Abduction
A motion that pulls a structure away from the midline of the body
28
Adduction
Motion that pulls a structure toward the midline if the body
29
Circumduction
Combination of flexion, extension, adduction, and abbduction
30
Pronation
* Hand turns in ward (palm down) | * Foot towards outward (weight in medial edge)
31
Supination
* hand turns outward (palm up) | * foot turns inward (weight on lateral edge)
32
Plantar flexion
Movement that decreases that angle between the sole of the foot and the back if the leg
33
Dorsiflexion
Movement that decreases the angle between the top if the foot and the leg
34
Protraction
Movement in an anterior direction
35
Retraction
