Principles Of ROM And Goni Flashcards
_____ refers to the movement of the shafts of bones rather than the movement of joint, measured via the goniometer
Osteokinematics
_____ refers to the movement of the joint surfaces, glides, and spins and rolls. These three occur in combination and result in movement of the shafts of the bones.
Arthrokinematics
______ plane is on the medial-lateral axis
Sagittal plane
_____ plane is on the anterior-posterior axis
Frontal Plane
_____ plane is on the vertical axis
Transverse plane
_____ the arc of motion that occurs at a joint or a series of joints.
Range of motion
How can range of motion be described
Actively: voluntary joint motion
Passively: moved by the pt without muscle contraction by the client
What are the factors to consider for rom
Symmetry Comparison to the contralateral side Age Gender Body type Pain
During PROM, ______ may be due to moving, stretching or pinching noncontractile (inert) structures.
Pain
During AROM, ______ can pain be contractile in nature or by muscles causing a malalignment of the joint mechanics
Pain
______ screens for abnormal movement and symmetry
Active range of motion
Active range of motion gives information on:
The willingness to move
Muscle strength
Joint rom
_____ assesses tissue that may be limiting motion
Passive range of motion
_____ describes joint end-feel, detects pain, and gives an estimate of the amount of motion.
Passive range of motion
Why is prom greater than arom normally
Due to tissue stretch and reduced bulk of relaxed muscles
