A

Half lying - pillow under knees to allow slight flexion. Measure from plantar-grade - 0 degrees.

31
Q

Patient positioning: PLANTARFLEXION

A

Half lying - pillow under knees to allow slight flexion. Measure from plantar-grade - 0 degrees.

32
Q

How to calculate shoulder flexion/extension?

A

Attempt by EYE first. attach inclinometer on deltoid line - set to 0. Stand side on to the patient. Ask the patient to complete the movement. At the end of range take the measurement. repeat twice.

33
Q

How to calculate shoulder abduction?

A

Attempt by EYE first. Attach inclinometer to front of biceps. Set to 0. Stand infront of patient. Ask the patient to complete the movement. Stop before flexion obscures the movement. Take the measurement at the end of range. Repeat twice.

34
Q

How to calculate neck flexion/extension?

A

Inclinometer laterally just above ears. From nuetral - look up towards the ceiling or bring chin down to chest.

35
Q

how to calculate lumbar flexion?

A

patient standing with feeding 15cm apart. Palpate PSIS - half way between the two - 10cm above and 5cm below - mark on patient. Patient to place hands on thighs and slide down as far as they can. Remeasure the distance between the marks.

36
Q

How to calculate lumbar extension?

A

Patient standing with feet 15cm apart. Slide hands on back of thighs down as far as can. Record ROM by EYE first. Measure from tip of 3rd finger to floor with tape measure - record ROM. Repeat 2 times.

37
Q

How to calculate lumbar lateral flexion?

A

Patient standing with feet 15cm apart. Slide hands on side of thigh down as far as can. Record ROM by EYE first. Measure from tip of 3rd finger to floor with tape measure - record ROM. Repeat 2 times.
