Drinking or feeding activities
______ requires the most wrist flexion
Turning a door knob
What is the position for wrist flexion rom
Sitting next to a supported surface, the shoulder is abducted between 50-70 degrees and the elbow is flexed at 90, the forearm is pronated with the wrist and hand over the edge of the table.
What are the normal values for rom wrist flexion
60-76
What is the fulcrum, SA, and MA of rom wrist flexion
Fulcrum: lateral aspect of the wrist over the triquetrum
SA: proximal, lateral midline of the ulna, using the olecranon and ulnar styloid as references,
MA: align with the lateral midline of the fifth metacarpal
