Test 1- Range of Motion

Question 1

Range of motion

Answer 1

• The amount of excursion an individual can move through freely and without pain
  -Joint move through all osteokinematics (sagittal/ frontal/ transverse)

Question 2

Active range of motion

Answer 2

• the total movement one can do on their own
  (They are actively lifting their segments on their own maximum)

Question 3

Passive Range of Motion

Answer 3

• The total amount excursion one can do when completely relaxed & someone moves their limbs for them
  (they are moving without actively engaging any contractions themselves)

Question 4

What If PROM is greater than AROM?

Answer 4

• PROM is usually equal to, or greater, than AROM

Question 5

what does Lower AROM and Higher PROM

Answer 5

Means that the decreased AROM is likely not from anatomical concerns

Question 6

Measuring ROM

Answer 6

-Uses of Goniometers are the devices used to measure the angles

Three Parts
- Stationary Arm
-Fulcrum (the center)
-Moving arm

Question 7

Limitations in human movement

Answer 7

Movement is dependent on things:
- the ability to generate sufficient forces for movement
-the ability to produce motion through a range of motion

Question 8

What does limiting either the force productions or the range of motion mean

Answer 8

Means something is insufficient to produce healthy movements

Question 9

Active Insufficiency

Answer 9

• the shortening of a biarticular muscle at both joints to thus reduce the ability to produce force
• Conducting the action of a muscle at both joints

Question 10

Passive Insufficiency

Answer 10

• when a biarticular muscle stretches at one joint and then limits motion at the other joint, rendering it insufficient for movement.
  -inhibiting range of motion at another joint through stretching at the other
