Topic 2 - Concepts & Approaches Flashcards
_____ of ______ can be used for the examination of movement and for incorporating movement into a therapeutic intervention program.
Range of Motion
Joint structures, as well as the _________ and flexibility of soft tissues that cross over the joints, affect the amount of motion at the joint.
Integrity
Regional structures that are affected by _____ of ______ include:
- Muscles
- Joint surfaces
- Capsules
- Ligaments
- Fasciae
- Vessels
- Nerves
Range of Motion
Range of motion is usually measured with a __________ and mobility requires a __________ range of motion.
Goniometer
Functional
A type of range of motion that is the average based on many people.
Full/Normal Range of Motion
A type of range of motion representing what the patient can do with their own muscle.
Active Range of Motion
A type of range of motion representing what is anatomically possible for the patient based on their end range.
Passive/Anatomical Range of Motion
A type of range of motion representing what the patient needs in order to accomplish their ADLs.
Functional Range of Motion
_______ ROM is movement of a segment within the unrestricted ROM that is produced entirely by an external force.
Passive ROM (PROM)
Indications for _______ ROM include:
- Acute or inflamed tissue
- After injury or surgery
- Patient is unable or not supposed to actively move
- Comatose, paralyzed or complete bed rest
Passive ROM
Goals for _______ ROM include:
- Decrease cartilage degeneration, adhesions and contracture formation
- Improve poor circulation following immobilization
- Maintain joint and connective tissue mobility
- Decrease or inhibit pain
- Assist with the healing process
Passive ROM
Limitations with _______ ROM include:
- Does not prevent muscle atrophy
- Does not increase strength or endurance
- Does not assist circulation to the extent that active muscle contraction does
Passive ROM
______ ROM is movement of a segment within the unrestricted ROM that is produced by active contraction of a muscle.
Active ROM (AROM)
_____-_________ ROM is active movement where assistance is provided manually or mechanically because the prime mover muscles need help to complete the motion.
Active-Assistive ROM (AAROM)
Indications for ______ ROM include:
- When the patient is able to contract the muscles actively
- When a segment of the body is immobilized, used to regions above and below to maintain normal conditions
- Relieves stress from sustained postures
Active ROM
_____-_________ ROM is used to gain control of the patient’s ROM, and progressively moves to ______ ROM.
Active-Assistive ROM
Active ROM
