Question
Answer
Assessment order of ROM   Active, Passive, against resistance  
🗑
Active Range of Motion (AROM)   the movement of a body part through an arc of motion with active muscular contraction.  
🗑
Active assistive range of motion (AAROM)   the movement of a body part through an arc of motion with a combination of active muscular contraction and external force  
🗑
Passive range of motion (PROM)   the movement of a part of the body through an arc of motion by an external force  
🗑
Resisted Range of motion (RROM)   the movement of a body part with active muscular contraction against a graded resistance  
🗑
Painful arc   pain that occurs at a certain point in the ROM of a joint. It disappears when motion is past point  
🗑
Inert Tissue   tissue that does not contract. Ex: bone, ligament, cartilage  
🗑
Contractile tissue   structures that are involved in a muscle contraction  
🗑
End Feel   the quality of resistance at the end of the motion  
🗑
Assessment of AROM   Assessed 1st compared to uninjured limb. pain location and arcs are noted  
🗑
AROM restrictions   Soft tissue restriction/muscle tightness, muscle imbalances, contracture of soft tissue joint capsule or articular structures, neural tension, postural imbalances, joint dysfunction  
🗑
Assessment of PROM   patient must be in a good position, soft tissues around joint should be in a relaxed position. used for regain, increase, or maintain ROM when muscle contraction is contradicted.  
🗑
Endfeels   the palpitation or tension of the joint at the end of ROM  
🗑
Normal Endfeels   Capsular/ligamentous (firm), Bony, muscle stretch, soft tissue approximation  
🗑
Capsular/ligamentous (firm) endfeel   firm end point with slight give: Stretching leather belt  
🗑
Bony endfeel   Abrupt hard end feel; bone contracting bone is restricting ROM. pushing tow hard objects together  
🗑
Muscle stretch endfeel   Stretchy or rubbery end feel. Muscle tightness is restricting joint ROM: Stretching a heavy exercise band.  
🗑
Soft tissue approximation endfeel   mushy end feel. Muscle and fat are pushing against each other, restricting ROM: Pushing firm pillows together  
🗑
Abnormal Endfeels   Muscular spasm, Loose, springy, empty  
🗑
Muscular spasm   "muscle guarding," tight restrictive feeling often from pain experienced at a point in the painful range  
🗑
Loose endfeel   Range of motion beyond normal limits  
🗑
Springy endfeel   a stop and rebound at some point in th reange of motion  
🗑
Empty endfeel   no end feel is apparent  
🗑
Evaluation of ROM   evaluated withe goniometer, bubble goniometer, inclinometer, or tape measure before exercise and after treatment  
🗑
Resisted ROM   used to determine general muscle weakness or pain in the muscle performing motion: resistance applied mid ROM  
🗑
Muscular lesions: Strong and painless   normal/no injury  
🗑
Muscular lesions: Strong and painful   1st or 2nd degree muscular strain  
🗑
Muscular lesion: Weak and painless   3rd degree strain/complete rupture on muscle or tendon  
🗑
Muscular lesion: weak and painful   major injury to muscle/tendon or both  
🗑
