ROM vs Stretching

A

Stretching is a specific technique designed to increase a muscle’s available ROM.

ROM monitors and maintains the capacity for motion that already exists.

Q

Types of diagonal plane movement.

A

D1 Flexion: This pattern involves moving a limb from an extended position across the body to a flexed position. Imagine reaching up and across your body to grab something from a high shelf.

D1 Extension: The reverse of D1 Flexion, moving from a flexed position across the body to an extended position.

D2 Flexion: This pattern involves moving a limb from an extended position out to the side and up. Think of drawing a sword from a sheath on your opposite hip.

D2 Extension: The reverse of D2 Flexion, moving from a flexed position out to the side and down.

24
Q

Decreased articular cartilage erosion from PROM why:

A
  1. Nutrient Distribution: Cartilage is avascular, meaning it doesn’t have its own blood supply. It relies on the movement of synovial fluid within the joint to receive nutrients and remove waste products. PROM exercises help circulate this fluid, ensuring that the cartilage gets the nutrients it needs to stay healthy12.
  2. Reduced Inflammation: Regular movement through PROM can help reduce inflammation in the joint. Inflammation is a key factor in cartilage erosion, as it can lead to the release of enzymes that break down cartilage3. By keeping the joint moving, PROM exercises can help minimize this inflammatory response.
  3. Maintaining Joint Mobility: PROM helps maintain the joint’s range of motion, preventing stiffness and ensuring that the cartilage surfaces move smoothly against each other. This can reduce the wear and tear on the cartilage, slowing down the erosion process1.

Q

AROM additional benifits

A
  • Come from muscle loading around the joint.
  • Pressure loading on tendons
  • Helps callogen in tendons.
  • loading on tendons puts load on the bones.
  • Load on the bones keeps them healthy.
  • Loading on cartilage and synovium provides nureshment for joint structures.
  • Promotes local circulation.
  • Lymphatic and venous return.
  • proprioception and kinesthesia

Q

PROM Indications

A
  1. As an assessment technique
  2. When the patient’s own muscle force is not sufficient to produce safe, effective motion at the joint.
  3. When active contraction of the muscles would be harmful to the patient
  4. As a means of educating the patient.

Q

PROM contraindications

A
  1. If the patient declines consent
  2. During stages of tissue healing in which motion could inhibit, retard, or stop repair.
  3. When patients experience muscle guarding that is too strong for them to voluntarily overcome
  4. when strong muscle guarding is accompanied by increased pain.

Q

PROM Precautions

A

Clinician must judge:
1. When PROM temporarily increases the patients pain
2. When PROM elicits undesired muscle tone

30
Q

How to judge PROM Precautions

A

SINSS
S-severity
I-irritabilityy
N-nature
S-Stage
S-stability

31
Q

AROM indications

A

if the patient is able to perform the movements safely, effectively and without pain.

32
Q

AROM Contraindications

A
  1. Pain that occurs throughout the motion or persists after the activity
  2. Development of undesired muscle tone, promoting an already dysfunctional pattern.
  3. Presence of undesired cardiopulmonary responses, includingabnormal respiration, abnormal heart rate, abnormal blood pressure or pain associated with cardiac distress.
  4. Other adverse responses to exercises, such as excessive effusion or inflammation.
33
Q

PROM durring early healing

A

Research is inssufficient. rest for first 48 hours at least. 48 to 72 hours can do some which may help with alignment and orientation of newly forming tissue fibers.

34
Q

PROM dosage

A

Low intensity but high frequency is recomended for early tissue healing

For orthopedic problems, 5-12 reps at to 10 sec per cycle.

For neurologically increased muscle tone - may need to be performed slowly.

35
Q

AROM dosage

A

by the patient’s response to movement.

pain, vitals, fatigue. quality or accuracy of movements.

36
Q

Straight plane or diagonal plane movements

A

Straight plane movements are specific and isolate each joint’s full available range Definition: Movements that occur in a single plane (sagittal, frontal, or transverse) ie lateral raise - frontal plane

Diagonal plane movements may not move each joint through its complete range but are more similar to functional movemnt patterns of daily living. Definition: Movements that occur in multiple planes, often crossing the midline of the body. Example: Reaching across the body to grab an object, throwing a ball.

37
Q

ROM exercise progression

A

PROM to AAROM to AROM to RROM.

38
Q

Support in PROM and AROM

A

Support in PROM helps a client relax
Support in AROM helps with stability

39
Q

Stabilizing proximal segment

A

Manually or through support surfaces. Chairs, matts, plinths. Durring wrist extension, the forearm is stabalized for instance. Active trunk stabilization may be necessary while performing shoulder flexion.

40
Q

Gaurding the patient

A

Guarding amount depended amount client can maintain their own stability in static or dynamic conditions.

41
Q

Stabilizing the joint proximal to motion

A

Is a form of CCDD

42
Q

Mental rehersal of movement

A

can improve psychomotor performance. -useful when PROM is used as precurser to AROM

43
Q

Order of ROM proceedurs considerations

A

Minimize the amount of patient repositioning.

44
Q

Things to do when starting ROM proceedures

A
  • Explain the procedure and obtain patient consent
  • Position the patient
  • Assess the patient’s Preactivity status
  • Position yourself
45
Q

Things to do when starting ROM activity

A
  • Engage the patient as fully as possible in the activity.
  • Move, or instruct the patient to move, the limb from one end of the joint or muscle range to the other with correct joint biomechanics.
  • All motions should be performed slowly with a brief hold at the point of greatest joint range or muscle elongation.
  • avoid stretching muscle in case of flacid or uninervated muscles.
  • May use overpressure (which would stretch.)
46
Q

Things to do after ROM activity

A
  • Reassess symptoms and physiologic status
  • Document activities and findings
  • Leave the patient safely situated at the end of the exercise session
47
Q

Overpressure

A

At the end of a pain free ROM, applying a small amount of force at the end of range can provide information about the joint condition

48
Q

Self-ROM

A

Perform PROM or AROM on their own joints. -canes broom handles. “wands”

Pendulum exercises known as “cod man’s exercieses.”
