PROM

Question 1

PROM

Answer 1

Passive Range Of Motion
(Therapist does the work, patient is relaxed)
I

Question 2

These movements are also called

Answer 2

anatomical movements

Question 3

The end of a passive movement is also referred as

Answer 3

anatomical barrier

Question 4

The examiner must consider the position the patient is in because it could have an effect

Answer 4

Yes

Question 5

Differences in ROM between active and passive movements may be caused by

Answer 5

✓ Muscle Contraction or Spasm
✓ Muscle Deficiency
✓ Neurological Deficit
✓ Contractures
✓ Pain

Question 6

Normal mobility is

Answer 6

RELATIVE

Question 7

Hypermobile joints tend to be more susceptible to

Answer 7

▪ Ligament sprains
▪ Joint effusion
▪ Chronic pain
▪ Recurrent injury
▪ Paratenonitis resulting from lack of control (instability)
▪ Early osteoarthritis

Question 8

Hypomobile joints are more susceptible to

Answer 8

▪ Muscle strains
▪ Pinched nerve syndromes
▪ Paratenonitis resulting from overstress

Question 9

Myofascial Hypomobility

Answer 9

results from adaptive shortening or hypertonicity of the muscles or from posttraumatic adhesions or scarring

Question 10

Pericapsular Hypomobility

Answer 10

has a capsular ligamentous origin and may result from adhesions, scarring, arthritis, arthrosis, fibrosis, or tissue adaptation

Question 11

Pathomechanical Hypomobility

Answer 11

occurs as a result of joint trauma (micro or macro) leading to restriction in one or more directions

Question 12

Hypermobility

Answer 12

is NOT the same as instability. Instability covers a wide range of pathological hypermobility

Question 13

End feel

Answer 13

examiner should apply overpressure at the end of the ROM to determine the quality of end feel (the sensation that the examiner “feels” in the joint as it reaches the end of the ROM) of each passive movement

Question 14

Intrarater Reliability

Answer 14

the degree of agreement among repeated administration of a diagnostic test performed by single rater

Question 15

Interrater Reliability

Answer 15

the degree of agreement among multiple raters

Question 16

POP is not recommended for hypermobile joints due to the risk of injury such as subluxation or dislocation of joint

Answer 16

Yes

Question 17

Patterns of Inert Tissue Lesion

Answer 17

✓ Pain-Free, Full ROM
✓ Pain and Limited ROM in every direction
✓ Pain and Excessive or Limited ROM in some direction
✓ Pain-Free, Limited ROM

Question 18

Examiner should observe the following during the passive movement

Answer 18

✓ When and where during the each of the movement pain begins
✓ Whether the movement increases the intensity and quality of pain
✓ The pattern limitation of movement
✓ The end-feel of movement
✓ The movement of associated joints
✓ The range of motion available
